ehhh, I always thought damage is determined by the CV's firepower stat and the plane's stats, regardless of plane slots. Larger slots increase fighter power and decrease the chances of that slot going to 0.

You do lose a lot of bombers at E-6, so I would still recommend equipping the bombers in the larger slot/s.

Anyway, I used 2CV (CVB Shokaku & Hiryuu) equipped with fighters and dive bombers, plus Akitsumaru (reppuu mule), went for AS+ at the boss node and cleared E-6H that way. When I used a CLT in place of my FBB in the escort fleet, I never went to the sub node.
