There is a report from 2 (TWO) YEARS AGO and several reports from couple of months ago where users described issue that many types of HE shells of aircraft’s cannons DO NOT any damage to wooden components of aircraft.
That means many wooden planes (Yaks, Mosquitos, LaGGs, MiGs, La-5, La-7) have very unfair advantage and can take hits to theirs wooden wings from HE shells endlessly and just laugh to their opponents.
2 years - it is just absurdally big amount of time to fix this. You just have to adjust fuze sensitivity, because HE shells with properly low fuze sensitivity damage wooden aircraft parts as they should.
Why don’t you even try to fix this?
