15.2cm yellow gun is utter crap, don't you have some 15.5cm yellow guns?

How many 46cm and 41cm guns do you have in total? FBB and BBV work good with 46cm/41cm + 35.6cm + seaplane + AP shell/radar. Adding a yellow gun instead of AP shell/radar will go gun cut-in at night, which is wasted on low luck BBs (single attack or cut-in instead of double attack).

You can equip the BBV with 2x red guns + 2x Zuiun, to help with air power and airstrike bombing capacity.

I assume that you don't have T91/94 AAFD nor 10cm HA+FD guns ... without AACI your task becomes harder ...

You need at least 154 air power at boss to achieve superiority and activate artillery spotting. Do what you can to get at least that much. You should start with more to compensate for losses along the way, lets say something around 170 air power at start should be enough. You should have that reppuu from E-1 clear, put it on the biggest slot you have. If you must, sacrifice a turn per shelling phase and load one of the carriers full of green planes. You can survive with A ranks pre-boss.

Do you have your ships fully modernized in at least firepower, torpedo and armor? Avoid using pre-Kai ships. Pray to RNG-sama.

This is about all the advice I can give, good luck.
