Best Answer

The bombs are hooked on with electrically operated latching hooks. In some aircraft individually triggered, in some all together. The bomb bay doors operate just like undercarriage doors with a hydraulic ram. When the bay doors are open, bomblatches can be triggerred and bombs will fall.
