reported earlier Warbird Tail "Oblomok" Shapes With Desynced Argument Values (Regrowing Warbird Tails)

[Magic Zach]

For quite some time now, it's been widely noted by the WWII community that aircraft when shot will sometimes duplicate an entire tail piece (sometimes multiple times but that's less frequently observed).
It appears very possible that this is linked to DCS attempting to model the detachment of the entire rudder.
For instance, with the 190A8:

When the rudder is detached, it spawns the object "...oblomok_tail"
This is that "...oblomok_tail" for the Anton:


Same for the 109K4:



Of note with this screenshot, the damage arguments do not match that of the actual 109 itself.  This tail in this screenshot can be recreated with these arguments

For a detached rudder, these are the arguments needed for a coherent rudder detachment animation


This appearance of a regrowing tail has also been observed with the Spitfire, Dora, P-47, and I believe the P-51.

oblomok/обломок in Russian means "a broken-off piece"..

I've seen this behavior on A20, Mosquito, 109, P51...
