1 fighter and three bombers in all the wings.

You want to put your best fighter in group 1 and your best bombers (the land-based specific bombers) in group 3.

By the time group 3 makes its run, the defending planes will be depleated a bit and more will get through than did from group 1. At least this is what I've observed from my E-7 clear.

Also, while I don't know if it matters, I did far more damage to the boss and her escorts by stacking torpedo bombers in group 1 and 2. I didn't use any dive bombers.

Two runs with that setup got me a last dance kill after a couple of days of trying and failing with Rank C using other comps. Both of those runs nearly wiped out the encounter before the first shots were fired.

Oh, and don't forget to use E-5A to level all your planes you're sending to top rank! It makes a huge difference!
