The first bomb explodes on the German warehouse. None of them saw it coming.
"I'm going to start acting as a diversion, du! Hang on!"
The sound of alarms and bullets ring out throughout the night sky, German soldiers calling out warnings everywhere they can hear it. Despite their best efforts, they can't quite spot the plane that caused the explosion. Irina's distractions are working perfectly.
Each crew goes in groups of three planes, each having a pilot and a navigator. Two planes act as decoys for the searchlights and flack guns while the third silently kills their engine and swoops in for the bombing. They take turns in this manner. Irina and her navigator, du, are the last to drop their payload this mission.
Eventually, it comes time for the other plane to drop their bomb. They cut the engine and glide over to the warehouse, barely making a sound.

More screams of terror sound from the warehouse.
Whenever a navigator like du tapped the pilot on the shoulder, that meant that she thought now would be a good time to drop the bomb. Irina has paired with du many times before. She trusts her judgment on the timing more than she trusts her own. So she keeps her current maneuvers going until the time is right.
"Next is us, du! Let me know when to start gliding!"
