Troubleshooting the DM on the Beaufighter this time.

Cockpit armor and armor glass does what it's supposed to against frontal hits, although it can be penetrated at close range.

One oddity is that compared to most other recently added planes, it's damned near impossible to set the plane on fire or start a fuel leak. Engines are also extremely tough compared to the same engine when mounted in the Wellington, which can be made to die VERY quickly.

Notice the Beaufighter with it's engines and the leading edges of its wings - directly forward of the inboard fuel tanks - turned into a sieve with no leakage and little damage to the engines.

Unless there's some armor plate there that I don't know about, those fuel tanks ought to be leaking or on fire with that much damage!
