One could also compare the strength of the G4M Betty and Ki-21 Sally. One is a Zippo, the other seems to be a tank. I also wonder about the apparent fragility of the Pe-2 compared to the Bf-110, Ju-88 or A-20.

Indeed there are some DM's that just don't seem to make sense... I know generally how the DM's work in theory but in practice there seems to be some interesting results.
If the Ki-27 and Ki-43-I are so similar... they should go down similarly but they don't. Even if the wing tanks are smaller... fire a dozen .303 rounds in that general area and you should get a light... but you rarely do. |
Another ultra strong plane is I-16.
Even newer soviet planes are more fragile than it.P-40 (later models) are also strong,but propeller stops at any reason. IJN and IJA planes looks quite fragile,but USN fighters are too stronger than them. |

Back in the old days they used to shrug off everything and keep on fighting. Actually if you compare I-16 versus Ki-27 which is a Khalkin Gol matchup there is a major problem because the Ki-27 is nearly immune to the I-16's machine guns but the reverse is not true so the Ki-27 wins most fights on DM alone. |
The P11.c used to be a ram monster ... rip the wings off 109's and spits in collisions and fly away intact.
Really annoyed people online when you did that :P |
idk about tough but nates can turn on a pinhead....I have tried to dogfight them in my Spitfire and had them out turn me.....same thing with a Buffalo and some early war french plane...things seemed to turn around right in place like a tank

The Ki-61 and Ki-44 were real shocks to these pilots no doubt! |
