I tried running the mission with my JU-88 and DO-17 dive bomber versions (both set to cat 3 and work well in anti ship missions) and they also began ignoring the post bomb run waypoint.
I added Alt Route waypoints for the Stukas that are triggered by 0 bomb count. This seemed promising in that the Stukas did now turn towards home after the bomb run however saving the mission in MB made bizarre changes to waypoints and created/added waypoints that I never wrote into the mission. Cody Coyote's Mission Building guide does mention strange things like this happening if you try to save a tweaked mission too many times but I've rewritten dozens of mission many times over and never had this happen.
At this point it may be a lost cause to make the Stukas turn for home and return to their base. But because my mission goals are tied to them reaching a "safe area" with an "Object Health " above 75%, I may have to rewrite this goal as success if they are at 75% when their bomb count is zero, or when my flight returns to base and leave it at that.
