Enemy Plane Damage
 

If you shoot an enemy plane and make it have a fuel leak will it quickly loose fuel and crash.

Possibly. I know that in the PC Il2s you can get hit in a fuel tank and run out of fuel yourself, and I'm pretty sure I have seen it happen to AI planes too, but I don't know about Birds of Prey. Anyway, it takes a couple of minutes before you run out of fuel so you won't really notice unless it happens to your own plane.

Thanks for the answer. Also is it posible to blow out an enemy bombers engine and it will keep flying? Like if you shoot an HE-111's engine and it goes on fire and the propeller falls of but the bomber pilot will keep trying to fly it.

i was wondering that myself, i havent yet seen anything to show that will happen. i will try the demo out later and see if i can get some well placed shots to see if this happens

I'm going to try it too, but so far when I shoot one of the engines it just blows up and the plane crashes.

yea thats what i get, its either a fuel leak or an explosion

or the wing comes off

Is it possible to have your engine shut off if it get hit?

Yes, it also shuts off when youre flying to rough.

yes it is, ive done some extensive testing on the damage model and one of the things that came apparent, your engine can die and your just left to glide to the ground, it shows up on that little damage representation of your plane as black when it is not working

I once even landed the spit on that large runway with a hole blown in both wings, a hole in the tail section, bullet holes in the canopy, huge chunks in the elevators, jammed flaps, oil spattered cockpit and no propellor.

That must have been awsome.
