The new bomb fuzing needs to be an option.

Maybe in a dive, but not in level flight. Some information seems missing here to explain that.
Note, that I used the minimums height and speed of your numbers.

they are the similar number range you'll find anywhere, Casper.. and if you go back abit, you'll read that some sank, some hit the waterline and some did go over the ship.

water surface conditions, etc

About pics..

By the looks of it, skip bombing techniques were mostly used by B25 crew and B17. I have a cr*pload of different publications about WWII birds... I have yet to find any pic of a B17 skipbombing..but found quite a few B25's.

Take note that the "2nd plane" is a shadow... taken in Bismarck sea


Take note of altitude..bay of Hong Kong


Take not of altitude.. I would say considering the B25 has a wingspan of 20 m, this one is I would say 50-60m
Note thouh the text.. just because a B25 is low doesn't mean he is skipbombing. Front guns were quite heavy and could do a lot of damage.. and when u are strafing u need to go low
