Should jets explode?

Me 262 has to have some "balancing" damage modelling.

A few MG pings in an engine and your done, its ablaze no matter how much you "dive it out", it reminds me of the FW190 wing damage, few MG hits and its time to head home mission over.

Bf110 has a explosion/flame retardant cockpit you can sit in it all day long surviving with fuel tanks exploding [last count was 45 fuel tanks exploding] also de-winged,
so some strange damage modelling has been around a long time, some has been introduced with the new patches like the bf110 endless exploding fuel tanks.

Would be nice to clean the bugs up but its a thankless task for them at times I imagine.

If it makes no sense and has never been fixed its not a bug its balancing

PS: check the Me262 climb rates also
