How to beat the Japanese historical campaign Battle of the Eastern Solomons?

I have been trying to beat the Japanese historical campaign to unlock the victory marks however the mission “Battle of the Eastern Solomons” appears impossible as even if you manage to get all the bombers to the carrier alive the ship anti air will tear them apart in seconds. Does anyone know of a way to beat it with the current state of things or has someone managed to beat it recently?

There is a bug report on the issues but it has not been acknowledged (and probably wont be since the campaign has not been touched in forever)

A lot of the single player scenarios are unwinnable now because they have changed the game flight models and AAA effectiveness. Yeah, they are not maintained AFAIK either.
