The title for the Fall event has been announced: 発令！「艦隊作戦第三法」
I understand that this is based on an operation carried out as a reaction to the DooLittle Raid ("対米国艦隊作戦第三法"). The IJN 2nd Fleet was sent out to hunt the Raider's fleet, with support from landbase aircraft if need be. The ships involved were:
CA: Atago (flagship), Takao, Maya, Choukai, Myoukou, Haguro
CVL: Shouhou
AV: Mizuhou
CL: Jintsuu
DD: Arashi, Nowaki
The above were the first-respondents if I'm not wrong. Souryuu and Hiryuu, on their way back from the Indian Ocean Raid with the rest of the Nagumo Mobile Strike Force, were also called into the chase.
