Independence would also be the first carrier to be fitted with a Night Air Group (Air Group 41) between August 1944-January 1945. Her Night Fighter Squadron, VF(N)-41, would have the highest kill count of any Night Fighter Squadron. Independence and supposedly Bataan were also supposed to join Enterprise as part of the new Night Carrier Task Group, Task Group 38/58.5, formulated by Admiral King. However, only Independence would join Enterprise in that role when the latter was converted to night ops and loaded with Night Air Group 90. Both Carriers participated in the invasion of Luzon and the South China Sea Raid. However, issues with Independence's size (I think) meant that the USN decided that a light carrier was no longer suitable for night operations. So, she was converted back to Day ops. Saratoga and later Bonhomme Richard joined Enterprise in the Night Carrier Task Group.

@Cailus3542 i think at some point a lot of paper was thrown up in the air and the IJN general staff collectively said “stuff it.” When they found out Enterprise survived for the upteenth time.
