F-16 damage model question

[normanleto]

Is there any page or instruction covering the current damage model of the f-16?

I am not sure if it's done properly or just you-get-hit-you-go-boom at the early access stage?

Best,

It's very rough right now. Eventually all the jets will get a complete damage model overhaul and will be far more detailed.

It's almost non existing. Systems don't fail, you can't degrade stores, nada.

But I think that's the case for the Hornet also, so .. taking the Hornet as the elder brother .. it's going to be quite some time before we see that .. if we ever do that is.

It's not done peroperly yet, but at least we're beyond the you-get-hit-you-go-boom DM that we had initially when the F-16 got released into EA. Because this was too simplified and hits that are not big enoguh to make you go boom caused no other damage which caused a lot of complains especially in the MP arena, ED went ahead and gave us at least some additional structural integrity damage. This means if you get hit now, the structural integrity of the wings gets damaged and if you pull too many G in this state, the wings can crack. Internal systems are still not able to recieve any damage though.
