Ensign Robert "Bob" T. King in his damaged TBM-3 'Avenger' White 113 of VT-82, USS Bennington (CV-20), 18th of February 1945. A mid-air collision resulted in the loss of nearly half the port wing, in addition to a five foot section of fuselage decking immediately aft of the turret. Bob King skilfully retained control of his doomed TBM long enough to make a successful water landing.  :o:

Main explanation is that the visual damage model does not exactly replicate aerodynamic damage model effect

 

maybe is game engine/performance limitation or simply requires huge coding work, or maybe even a small bug with P-40 visual damage compared to actual

 

Although, see this thread for pics of real similar A/C flying in same condition :biggrin: *EDIT* pics already posted above

Common issue with the DN engine all the way back to the early days of RoF.

 

The HP 0/400 would fly without it's wings.

This happened to me in a Stuka, landed it with half a wing missing. It was one of the most satisfying events I've had in this game.

It took a lot of patience to land it though.
