I saw no evidence that the P-38's damage model was so bad that it modeled the area between the horizontal stabilizer, tail booms and trailing wing edge as part of the plane.

What I did see is incredibly bad damage modeling that makes it far too easy to break the P-38's control surfaces, stabilizers or tail booms, and which doesn't model important engine systems.
Thanks. Probably "empty space damage" was a myth.
Agree with your last sentence. Those tails...
