Tips

 * It is suggested to farm I-26 on Easy mode first, then clear the map on Hard if possible.
 * The map has a Line of Sight requirement at pre-boss, 10.06 eLoS on Normal and at least 13.55 eLoS on Hard
 * No CV and slow BB allowed
 * There are many sub nodes. It's recommended to bring Isuzu for preemptive ASW or any ship with 100+ ASW after equipment.
 * Bringing a FBB offroutes you to E and 20% less fuel at boss (20% fuel left at boss vs. 40%), but enables the second shelling phase at the boss node. If you lack ASW, it might be better to bring a FBB.
