From HQ 80 the enemies will be the same. I just did that quest today at HQ 97 with ships between lvl 23 and 36. Don't worry about the boss, other than the boss itself, the other ships are really easy to sink. As long as you sink 2 of them, it's a A-Rank. Even then, if the torp misses, a B-Rank is also easy to get.

The real trouble of the quest is the sub at the first node (it took quie some tries to survive him, since he can insta-taiha any mutsuki class) and not getting offrouted. The boss is cake. But try to craft 2 or 3 god ASW equpments if you are unsure.

Just Kai them for the third slot, and, maybe raise their armor to try to somewhat tank the torps, i don't know if it helps much  though.
