• At high speed 1/3 rd Open is generally sufficient.
• Slow speed is the worse situation. Sustained slow speed high power manoeuvring with < half rads should be avoided.

The A/C Bf 109 E with mounted bomb racket attacks the target in an inclination flight or a dive up to 45°. At a steeper dive the A/C is endangered through the bomb penetrates the propeller circle.

For aim angles please see Dive Bombing >> Bf 109.

Best results can be achieved at a dive angle of 45°.

Attention! For the release heights consider the fragmentation area of the bombs and the arming time of the fuse.

• Adjust the intensity of the Revi light.
• At the ZSK 244 set switch to “Sturz”[dive] “mV” resp. “oV”.

Only active the ZSK 244 above enemy territory or restricted area, since it also arms the elect. release.

• Set propeller pitch to 9:30 o'clock.
• Trim to circa to +2° (head heavy).

The A/C must be tail heavy in the dive, that it can be only hold in the dive through pushing the stick. Cooling flaps can be left open.

• Throttle to idle.
• Aim with the Revi, Aiming procedure like Ju 87.
• Release the bomb through the bomb-button at the stick.

Attention Before the release bring the A/C in a steady flight condition. In the moment of release the dive angle must not exceed 45°. Mortal danger!

• At the moment of release flare out.
• Increase throttle.
• Trim out.
• Check if control lamp is off.
• Set switch at the ZSK 244 to “Aus”[off].

In case of an emergency the bomb can be released through the “Bomben-Notzug” handle. If the emergency release is above own territory, then release it disarmed (ZSK at “Aus”). If the emergency release is above enemy territory, then release it armed (ZSK at “mV” or “oV”).

The A/C is only allowed to land with bombs up to 250 kg. The 500 kg bomb has to be released disarmed throuth the emergency release before the landing.

Control before the landing with bomb that the ZSK 244 Is in “Aus”[Off]-position.
