If a human is flying it yes, its time to RTB
AI seem to be less affected for some reason.

190's were really sturdy for their time. Much more so than a 109.
Even so, on the popular plane lists, it is the one that suffers more from single damage. It becomes almost impossible to land safely after any single shot on it's wings.
My findings as well for a long time now,
even worse is the length of runway needed for landing now compounding the DM problem when RTBing
