Make sure your delay is set to 0. Bombs will explode normally on impact.

Given your comment here and in another thread, it seems that you are running a modded version or versions of IL2. Nothing wrong with that, a lot of us here run mods as well. The problem is, this is NOT the right forum to be asking for help with modded games. There's a Mod subforum here where you could ask questions, but the best place would be at the site where each mod is released from, like the SAS site, or HSFX forum, etc. In short, if you are running anything other than stock, unmodded IL2 4.11.1, you shouldn't be asking questions in here. Hope this helps.

SC is general purpose bomb, AB are cannister bombs with lots of little bomblets in, for and area affect.

Re the Corsair bombing, low-level fuse arms your bombs instantly, otherwise with the other types of fuses they have to fall for 2 seconds to arm, thats why your bombs aren't working, there not arming.

Re the Stuka, you need to change the autodrop height setting in the bombsight, set it low, and then it won't affect your manual drop.

The Stuka automatically releases it's payload at a minimal altitude if the pilot doesn't do so soon enough during the dive. This is a safety feature to ensure the pilot doesn't fixate too long on the target and ends up augering in himself. Just be sure to have enough altitude when you start the dive and allow yourself enough time to aim properly before release. Learning to dive bomb accurately in the Stuka isn't easy at first. Like everything else about the sim, it takes patience and practice to get it right.

Additionally... in the Stuka you can set the altitude that you pull out at using the bomb control keys. Normally this is used for setting the level bombing altitude but it has an alternate function in the Stuka. I tend to set mine at 400 meters or in other words... nearly the last second but it depends on the bomb, the delay timer you have set, etc.
