So, from two to six seconds?

Now, if I get a 2sec delay, but on the other hand an increased blast radius, I'll be fine with that.
Still, expect our kill/sortie ratio will be changed for ever, at least minus 20%.

Wouldn't it be better to decrease/randomise all bomb damage effects?

I don't know if this is historical correct, I would guess not, as in the other case there must be a Russian "Rudel" pendant with thousands of tank kills...
Wiki says: with PTAB you could kill about 2 tanks in average.

I have no problem flying home with a few kills less - but I feel castrated in comparison to the uber-IL... |
This is only true if you line up the tanks perfectly and are very lucky (and even then I don't get 12 tigers). I tend to average one or two Panzer IIIs, with occasionally larger numbers if they are lined up on a road.
You will also find that Il-2 pilots have to drop bomblets from higher altitudes.
P.S. If anyone has information on the fusing of the smallest Polish, Czech and Russian bombs - it would be very interesting.
