For what it's worth, I can remember this question cropping up before. It seems the rockets are designed for ground attack, and not for proper collision detection.Should be easy enough to test. Try dropping a bomb onto another plane ( the Germans did!!!!) and see if you can hit a B17 that way. My guess is they won't go bang!
This is something that needs fixing! Time delay rockets were something I wanted to build for formation busting!
My idea was to have a rocket, with an attached object. This object would have a fire start on release, with enough obHits to go boom after a set time. Explosion would be big enough to simulate air-burst of a rocket warhead. Never got it work though!
