Well those things have been implied to have some heavy firepower, so she needs to keep them off balance. Even if her Whale has a devastating breath weapon, it will probably need time to charge, and I doubt big boy turns all that fast, so if the ships take the initiative and go on the offense, then then could keep it busy while shooting though Salem's hordes to get at Monstro.

Of course if Atlas and mantle had defenses with bite, then you could really hammer them of balance, but noooooooo.
