I would drop H9s. The Mon Karren title means you cut out many defence tokens and ECM can override your accuracy. Put in Leading shots so you can Sato in a blue and a black even at long range or 2 black at short-Medium and get rerolls.

Use the extra 4 points for Lea on a GR75 and skilled first officer on the MC80B or Green squadron on one of the A-wings.

I would also put Toryn on the GR75 that doesn't have Sato on board. Toryn has to get in close to be effective and you don't want Sato at risk there. It is then an interesting decision if you put Bright hope to help protect the admiral or the flotilla that gets close to the enemy. Quantum storm is a good lifeboat improver for Sato's flotilla as you can just Navigate and accelerate away from enemies that slip through.

I would say the precise opposite to Mad Cat! Keep the H9's, as they will enable you to pop those flotillas for days, which is immensely satisfying.
