从9月初CV大黄蜂赶到战场以来，日军一直将KB隐藏在茫茫大海深处。一个月间盟军出动大量水面舰队对瓜岛进行炮击骚扰，KB一直隐忍不出。

由于十天后凖鹰号CV还将抵达，天皇原本计划先利用10天的时间杀伤瓜岛方向的盟军水面舰队，而后与凖鹰合并后再突击58。此时发生了预想不到的情况，盟军2CV的58突然也向瓜岛方向靠近，天皇认为这是一个杀伤58的大好机会，因此毅然决定突击。+ S- p6 y- n0 i) A
盟军并未侦察到KB，因此有部分SBD设置的还是反潜，对日军来说这是一个极好的机会。但接下来的战斗让天皇大跌眼镜：3 z' \3 Y$ v2 z* K/ p0 l

日军损失瑞鹤号CV、臻名号BB。) B1 U5 N; {' y# F8 D  }7 E+ v
双方各损失舰载机100余架。日军在极大优势下基本达成平手，主要败笔在于水面舰队力量不足

结局：* i* i- e$ k( c/ f/ d# h4 `* \
在盟军丧失制空权的情况下，10月底日军发起了对莫尔斯比港的进攻，但KB攻击机消耗过多，攻击力不足，盟军水面战很强力，鏖战一周左右，双方损失惨重，绝大部分舰船都带伤，日军虽在莫港投放了800战力，但面对4级城防难以攻克，水面力量的缺失使得封锁莫港成为不可能，双方僵持不下，协商停战，握手言和
