"Dive bombers typically carried small (60-250 kg) bombs designed more to pierce armoured targets than cause large explosions, so while they could cause some sort of damage to land installations it wouldn't be anything significant."

Well that depends on a type of target. On something like radars, coastal or AA guns dive bombers would be very effective (though attacking AA guns, especially rapid fire cannons would be rather dangerous). Not so effective at bombing runways though, thats where level bombers come into play.
