These relicts of Skoda bombs were found in 2018 in Friedrichsfeld (Lower Saxony State Authority) and blown up by the local EODs.
It apparently shows a bundle of 2 Czech Skoda 10 (or may be 20kg) bombs
An interesting finding as it confirms the use of Skoda bombs by the Germans - at least for training - but due to the bomb production crisis in 1939-40, their operational use in May-June 1940 is quite probable. It confirms also the use of straps to carry these bombs on German aircraft - as is known to have been done for Stukas with Polish bombs. And It shows a bundle configuration of twin bombs that was apparently not used originally by the Czech but a common practice in French and German air forces of the period.
Maybe some German members of this forum have more details/ photographs of this finding or of other Skoda bombs discovered in Germany (in 2018 there were at least 3 findings identified as "Skoda bombs" in German territory)
