No, no, no... What they did was delete all the armor and extra weight so that they could get as much power out of the engine as possible for maximum possible service ceiling so that escorts couldn't get them as they set up their dive at high speed into the formation. Basically the mod, if made, would have a re-tuned FM, reduced arament (1xMG 131 w/50rpg), and highly reduced armor (DM). I read up more on the attacks on April 7, 1945 and out of the eight bombers successfully rammed, at least four pilots survived. However, there were several failures since the planes were so lightly armored, or not armored, that, when the ran into escorts, they got torn to pieces in a matter of seconds, or fractions thereof. Several others had engine trouble and had to return to base. Should be a very simple mod to make for the skilled people here.
