DCS 1.5.6 2.0.5 SU-33 burner can crash

[DaveRindner]

Appears that scraping burner cans of SU-33 explodes the aircraft.

Yes, you're right. Maybe a bug? The plane always explodes when the tailpipes scrape the ground or the carrier deck. You'd think damage would result rather than the immediate explosion and instant evaporation of the plane. It's possible to receive other types of combat damage so the Su-33 does have some type of damage modeling.

 

ED, can this be fixed?

Hope these are only shortcomings of the SFM (simple flight model) and will be improved upon once the PFM (professional flight model) for the 33 (and the 29s, for that matter) come out.

I think this is a known shortcoming of the SFM.
