Update 2.59.0.54
Bomber Damage Model: Collision damage between aircraft has been increased. Previously collisions resulted in insufficient damage of wings and tail and didn’t lead to their separation. Added a chance for fuel tank explosions which depends on the duration of a fire. HE shell fragments and small-caliber machine-gun fire now penetrate the skin of the aircraft better and deal damage to the internal modules.
