The final mission objective is to sink the heavy cruiser ''Kumano''. It appears to the southeast and is escorted by a trio of destroyers. You gain control of the Catalina at around this time. Make a water landing near your sub to load up on torpedoes. This gives the Catalina some attacking power against the cruiser, although ultimately it will probably be shot down. If you touched the F1M Pete previously, it will move in now to assist you. It is equipped with a mere two bombs and is very fragile, but the enemy won't attack it unless you bomb or shoot one of their ships. As a result the Pete is best kept in the air as an observation plane so you can see the destroyers if your Catalina gets shot down. | The final mission objective is to sink the heavy cruiser ''Kumano''.

It's generally best to ignore the destroyers and focus on the cruiser | It's generally best to ignore the destroyers and focus on the cruiser. Sinking the destroyers does not net you any more objectives, so focus on the cruiser. Sink the cruiser to win the mission. | ||
The destroyers are not really a threat considering they spawn far away from the cruiser they must escort. Try to sink one or two of these with a head-on attack and sink the third as it passes behind you. Unlike the Japanese submarines, you have rear-mounted torpedo tubes. | The destroyers are not really a threat considering they spawn far away from the cruiser they must escort.
