Your tenacity is admirable but IMHO The Mikawa fleet mission is a bit advance if not a suicide mission I don't know what they are smoking back at Head Command ordering us not to bring any aircraft carrying ship in these hellish waters but we ARE really at a disadvantage just for 3 screws, would have been more worthwhile if they added in a Furniture Fairy or 5 screws instead of 3. I put off doing this Quest due to this basic knowledge and focused on preparation rather than trusting lady luck alone.

The only advise I could give you is to sparkle, use double support fleet and remove your Repair team, your fleet comp is already at a disadvantage offensively without air support, survival is all about your ship's level (main disadvantage for you) and  you said it yourself, depending on the situation these RT's may or may not be effective and should they do reach the boss with or without RT support, you cannot fully obliterate the boss fleet, and that can also be an indication that your fleet lacks the punch cause your RT is occupying the space meant for Planes, Guns or Radars for offensive purposes.

I finished this quest in 4 tries using the above suggested set up, with my level 81 Kinugasa Kai Ni close to Taiha at the end of Node A, in which she needed to survived till the end which she splendidly performed. I also brought along my trusty Tenryuu at level 78 (back then) equipped with ASW and a turbine arriving at the boss unscathed  but that troll sub decided to go MIA on her.
