Abukuma kai ni works like clt with type A + 2guns. Of course, opening torpedo is better than DA.

Hayasui (we don't speak about her refueling ability) with torpedo bombers is able to perform opening airstrike and day shelling attack like carrier. Her plane capacity is awful, so she couldn't be used on carrier-heavy maps (her fuel consumption is the second thing that make you prefer normal cvl). Hayasui is usable in 3-5 south route, where she can gain superiority before final form with Nu-class at G node. Good composition is Hayasui+CL+4DD. Abukuma k2 is also the best choice.

But this compo and other, like Hayasui+CAV+3CL+AV (good for last dance) don't guarantee the boss with a chance to go A or E.
