Scout drone damage model/hitbox issues

9M331

239mm, the largest AA missile in the game

15kg high-explosive fragmentation warhead

near hit <5m, somehow the drone takes 0 damage

fire another two shots, missile detonated on drone, but still no damage

Wasted a total of three missiles

4th shot somehow caused severe damage


Is this normal?

On one account they have been kinda nerfed since now you can search and track them in normal radar mode and don’t have to switch to IRST to track them but yeah they’re still super hard to hit which doesn’t make any sense.
That being said I have seen some footage of SPAA systems trying to shoot down scout drones but the missile either missed or the proximity fuse wasn’t activated such as this one:
