Yes, I've seen the values. I'm not sure if it is historical or not.
What I was proposing was to castrate them both! I like the lower blast effects (one has to aim more).

The overall probability of a PTAB knocking out a tank may be slightly elevated over the historical (eg. the shaped charge may not have been effective if it hit sloped armour) - but I think pilot quality and the layout of the ground targets are the main factors in any excessive effects.
Try making a few runs against tanks which aren't on roads or are only driving down roads in pairs (instead of groups of eight).
Regarding having to drop bomblets from higher altitudes - yes it is the case. My effectiveness has dropped by almost 40% since 4.10 (although I expect I'll improve). It is funny to release the AO-10 at low altitude - they don't fuse, but they skip along the road like little fishes.
