Even newer soviet planes are more fragile than it.P-40 (later models) are also strong,but propeller stops at any reason.

IJN and IJA planes looks quite fragile,but USN fighters are too stronger than them.

i have noticed that, both the p40 and p39 seem to have engine fires or stoppages much more than anything else.
