hi,
I just had a dogfight with a YAk-9M.
First, I ripped his whole Ruder off. Well he could still turn pretty good!
Then, after some minutes, we where in a Headon, where I shoot his right wing off!
He passed me, and touched me a little bit, my right Aileron went off. Not to bad for a close Head on.
So he flew by me and all of a sudden, he exploded! There was no fire before or smth like that. He just exploded about 50m behind me in the Air, killing my Pilot and destroying my plane.
I tested Headons agains Yak9ms offline, about 30times, none of them ever exploded just because of the loss of a Wing.
So tell me, hows that possible?
edit: there is a video available
