If your missle is flying off the screen you might have a tag named DetonationAltitude=X thats found in the projectile. This makes the flight of the missile really high before it hits its target.

A single Bomb Missile...
You could give the Black Eagle a change in its weapon. Just change the image of the missile to a ZBOMB and give it the warhead of the Blimbbomb.

If your trying to get a carpet bomb effect...
Below is a example of my bomber type unit`s weapon along with the Projectile. If you want the volleys to drop faster change the ROF (then test), Then Speed (then test), and then the Range (then test). Adjust the damage and/or WH to your liking.

[BombW]
Damage=50
ROF=25
Range=5
CellRangefinding=yes
Projectile=BombP
Speed=20
Warhead=ApocAPE
Report=KirovAttack

[BombP]
Image=ZBOMB
Arm=10
Shadow=no
Proximity=no
Ranged=yes
AA=no
AG=yes
SubjectToCliffs=no
SubjectToElevation=no
SubjectToWalls=no

Hope this stuff makes sence
