I've rested twice since I posted last and the term just came to me, it's mach stem. I wouldn't put it past Oleg to have put it into the DM just to keep wing tip or similar hits from demolishing planes they should not be able to. IE, not a bug but a realism feature.
Yeah I should have been running with Arcade=1 but didn't. I wanted to see if there really was a problem or not. Frankly I don't think there is and while I don't know the programming I'd agree with you that Oleg's team likely made sure there were some realism features or at least some sort of modifiers in place to prevent some weird things from happening too often. Not every MK108 (or any other gun) hit is going to be 100% perfect or 100% of it's lethal potential... you'd expect some natural variability in there just for probabilities sake. Agreed with you completely even if I'm not familiar with the specific term

MK108... definitely a killing machine!
