a. Set it on 5 seconds or whatever you like in the Arming Screen and select Apply and Fly.

b. Then Refly, Arming screen and it is still at 5 seconds.

c. Select Refly and Arming and it is back at 0.0 seconds.

This has been tested on Warbirds of Prey Test Server 4.11. Set up today by RAF238thWildWillie

I was flying a test mission on WoP and was setting in the first instance a delay of 3 seconds and flying to the ground target and blowing up as soon as the bomb hit the ground and found on refly that when I went to the Arming screen it was back at 0.0 seconds. So in effect when I took off on a mission (after setting 3 seconds and apply) to bomb there was no delay. I did this 5 times! Perhaps 2 bugs!

For the Spitfire... I did a lot of flying around on Bessarabia and Crimea and while keeping the engine in the 70-80 range for cruise is best, you should be able to go higher for short periods of time similar to most other fighters. I can't say that I flew the IXe specifically.

What map was this on? Temperature discussions are definitely impacted by the map being flown on as the ambient temperature has quite an impact.
