Enemy 100% damaged, not shown as destroyed

As shown in the picture, some AI aircraft as shown as damaged 100%, but not destroyed. Is there a subtle difference?

Not really sure actually. Do you know if the 100% damaged was still in flight or crash landed when you exited out? That is the only thing I can think of.

I would expect a 100% damaged aircraft not to fly anymore

 

I'm not sure, my guess was that this was what made the difference indeed. I took my time coming back home, landing and looking around for my flight, so this enemy aircraft couldn't just be gliding after the hits, it would have crashed by then.

 

It was above the Channel, and I remember checking the map at some point, and saw the enemy aircraft still, which I suppose means they ditched but were still shown on the map. Perhaps some of them are considered as "not crashed"?

For anyone who comes across this old post, it means that 100% of the damaged was inflicted by you, as opposed to 50% by you and 50% by your wingman, for instance.
