[REPORTED] Lost Rudder in a collision - still had full yaw range available.[0033239]

Had a very slow speed collision with a P-51. The prop and nose of the P-51 sheered off the entire rudder of my Dora leaving the rest of the vertical stabilizer intact.

However, I still had what seemed like a full range of yaw input and response and didn't even notice it was missing till approaching landing. I'd done some yaw maneuvers in the dogfight after losing it and it seemed fine. When I finally realised it was gone, I did a few quick yaw tests and it seemed normal - like the rudder was still there.

 

Is this working as designed? Is the damage model that I see in game what the aero model is using or an approximation? I thought maybe there is no damage model for the top half of the tail being chopped off so it reverted to this..

 

Just curious. Have a track if anyone is interested.
