Fix plane combat

alright, so obviously this games in beta still, but plane to plane combat is worse than, well everything. ive noticed with Germans in particular, you can burst fire a P-38 5-7 times an it walks away like youre shooting paper at it, but any time a P-38 taps a BF-110 it loses all forward momentum an just devolves into a flat spin into the ground. I also seriously dislike the re arming mechanic of just flying to point X an getting a full re arm. Makes for a pretty OP strat.

Considering the exact opposite happens on the other side, I’m pretty sure that plane hitmarkers are mostly fakes, which also explains why most players seem to miss me so badly when I’m on the defensive.

I’ve had instances where it required emptying the entire ammo load on a 110 to actually make it crash, but enemies flying in a straight line seem to be far easier to shoot down.

I think there’s just some desync going on.

It’s mighty bad indeed. The other day a round grazed my Stuka’s right wing and it was like the aircraft lost complete control. I just went down like a brick even though I’m in a supposedly resistant plane and the damage was hardly significant to even lower perfomance (if my War Thunder experience has taught me right).
Damage and flight models needs a serious rework. It’s like they took the early beta War Thunder Sim models and threw them here.
