The idea of an AP bomb only works because of the velocity at the drop, which an "AP skip-bomb" would lose as soon as it hit the surface once. WW2 Germany experimented with diving air-dropped bombs, essentially an in-between of a torpedo and a dumb bomb. Clearly, it didn't work out as well as planned, but it would be interesting to see that over more skip bombers. Skip-bombing with normal bombs was a fairly universally used bombing technique. Usually used against merchant targets where little to no AA return fire would be expected, it would be more likely to result in a hit than dive bombing. It is obviously not as exaggerated in range or bouncing as Wargaming has implemented it. There is no way that these bombs would have the energy after bouncing to penetrate an armored belt.

As far as i know skip bombing was only ever used for small ships (freighters, transports and DD) and not for well armored ships. I mean, even glide bombing would work better if you want a gimmick. (Not to be confused with modern glude bombs) Also, gravity was a huge part of AP bomb pen anyway.
@gregmorrill478323 сағат бұрын
The switching of shells making you stealthier CAN make SOME sense, in the sense of detectability after shooting, but not base conceal. In WW2, the US was in the process of switching their powder charges from an older powder that gave the traditional huge fireball at the muzzle to a powder that produced almost no muzzle flash. In one Pacific night battle (blanking on which one) multiple US cruisers were carrying both. While shooting the flashless powder, they were nearly invisible in the darkness, but once they ran out and had to switch to the old powder the Japanese target finders quickly zeroed in on the flashes.

In the pacific, skip bombs were standard bombs that were dropped in a low level attack skipping the bombs into the side of mostly freighters and lightly armored ships (usually by B25s, A-20, A-26 twin engine bombers). The round bombs were bouncing bombs used in the European theater designed for use against the damns of the Ruhr Valley dropped by modified Lancaster 4 engine bombers. AP bombs are possible, but should have low penetration.

I guess Logic of WeeGee of understanding laws of physics also throw out of the window. Skip AP bombers will never going to work IRL. That’s why they never continue to develop it after WWII because it is impractical. HE only hurts light target and AP is not going to be effective, because skipping in the water will cause the warhead to face wrong direction and failed to pen. That’s why in WWII they prefered regular bombs to dive bombs. Because let gravity do the rest is more effective than, torpedo the bomb. But again, Laws of Physics alread thrown out of the window when WeeGee added Soviet BBs with 30s turret traverse.

Just for context. Skip bombing and skip bombs aren't the same thing. You can skip bomb with normal bombs you just have to be at the right altitude and speed but skip bombs allow you to use the skip bombing technique from much further away. Hence why with dam busters it gave the advantage of pulling up before going deep into the AAA defenses and causing the bomb to pull itself down to the base of the dam before detonation. The technique itself was for attacking unarmed merchant ships allowing aircrews to have a much higher chance of hitting the target prior to inventions like the Nordon Bombsight becoming widely issued. Now does that change the fact it's stupid to lob AP bombs at the thickest part of the A in order to P? Nope BUT the concept is possible while being pointless... unless you're a WG gameplay designer.

25:47 Ok regarding the skip bombers, I don't think any plane in game actually uses a bouncing bomb. I think the only time they were used was during the dam baster raids. What actually is happening in game is the planes do a skip bombing run: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skip_bombing I am not going to comment on how realistic it is in game, or if it is even possible with ap bombs to penetrate anything like that. But I bet that is what WG is intending it to be.
