I agree that if you need to pass 4-5H without 5BBs, 1BB 5CV can work as well, plus 5CVs can even kill angry Nakano in oneshot which my 5BBs cant do in day battle.

Not to mention when you arrived at the boss node, the airstrike will knock out most of enemies, leaving only Ru kai and wanko left to be alive, and if one of 5CVs does the crit on Ru kai, it can knock her down in oneshot then we will just gangbang wanko until about 250 HP left and finish her off in NB with sanshiki

The only downsides are :

1. Nearly 300 bauxite burned each runs

2. Tsu can wipe some slots to 0 (Unless you go to NB route, but who would bring CV to yasen node? o.O) which will reset the ranking of your planes, recommended to place those in higher slots

3. Ta in node C and Ru kai in node H can survive at times and if you let them stay alive for too long, they will oneshot your CVs to death. I never tried 5BB set because: a. I hate using carriers as reppuu mules, and b. I don't have 5 non-Kongo BBs nor 5 Type-3 shells. But 1BB 5CV doesn't just seem like a substitute for me, it actually works very well. Actually I think it's the standard way of clearing 4-5 pre-final after aircraft proficiency.
