This mission is relatively easy - you just have to work quickly. Here you can look at the differences between Fletcher-class and Clemson-class destroyers. The Fletcher is the obvious power in these waters - you'll encounter only Minekaze-class destroyers on the Japanese side, so resistance is overall light. You also have had plenty of anti-shipping experience from [[Battlestations: Midway/Running the Palawan Passage|Running the Palawan Passage]], so this mission should be quite easy for you. | This mission is relatively easy - you just have to work quickly.

Head for the large mass of cargo ships straight ahead. The first enemy you'll encounter is the Minekaze-class ''Kawakaze''. You outnumber and outgun her, so avoid her torpedoes and simply shell the living daylights out of her with your vastly superior cannons. | Head for the large mass of cargo ships straight ahead.

The enemy cargo ships are at anchor and therefore don't move, so you can fire torpedoes at extreme range and still hit. Do this with the cargo ship that is moored on an island facing you. Torpedoes have a range of a whole nautical mile, so launch when you can and then consider the cargo ship destroyed. | The enemy cargo ships are at anchor and therefore don't move, so you can fire torpedoes at extreme range and still hit.
