I've calculated TAS = 340 km/h with an E6-B, and I confirmed this result with an app for Android which I have.

Right.

While your formula works ingame, this does not seem to compute the correct density according to the ISA tables (at 11000m it should be 22632 Pa), so I used the source formula
AD = (P*M)/[R*(Tmap-0.0065*ALT)]
where R and M is universal gas constant and molar mass of dry air and that gives me the constant 0,00348, giving same results as ISA tables.

Your equations (and my slightly altered one) were spot on on both test scenarios as defined above.
I also tried to increase the altitude to 5000m as you suggested before, and at least one of the bombs was still hitting the target pattern. Great!
...until I switched from SB-2 to Ju-88 or B-25.
On both maps and both altitudes the bombs fell always short. Too short. Maybe 2-3 bombsight degrees.
