Wow, this is really cool.
@Datom Thanks, and I think “over-the-shoulder-bombing” was first made public in 1957, but I have no idea when it was first done.
The “toss bombing” I think was actually known as “over-the-shoulder-bombing” in WWII but I could be wrong, nice plane btw!
I just got distracted by the dive bombing description.
