I think what Thor wants is in the old Micrprose and Infograms game where you targeted the target with the bombsite and got a red light showing when to drop the bombs which also made the rest of the flight drop theirs perfectly on target.


Sorry what is about individual tunings of bombsight for each aircraft that fly in your formation... If the leader say drop it doesn't means you all should drop immediatly if there is no special order for square bombing, where the leader defined when to drop you all that to get the known effect. In the case you talk in each plane the cre should set the bombsight individually and it will drop as it should. I don't think that waht was done in mentioned above games that it is real thing...
