Is there any chance to change the unrealistic damage model for the all jets? 

Why happens is that the planes always break 3 pieces and the small  wingtips are burning much stronger and longer than the main fuselage?

The F18 folded wingtip doesn't have fuel tank and the F16 either and the WW2 birds also have the same situation .But there is the new damage engine there and still do like this. 

It doesn't matter if we hit with missile or cannon or just break due to the G force the result is the same all the time.

Not sure if I understand you correctly, but both the F-16 and F-18 most certainly do have internal wing tanks

 

Your question about the wings burning stronger and longer then the fuselage, is a valid one though 😉

I think his point was that the part of the Hornet's wing which folds doesn't contain tanks - and I believe that is correct, just looking at some of those 'blueprint' diagrams, the wing tanks are located in the main wing area. So, the OP is wondering why the wingtip catches fire.

I think it's been answered though - it's a very old visual damage model that will be updated.

Any update about the DM for jets ?   I saw the 2023 and beyond video and  I saw that the  jets explode exact the same way like  earlier. and I also didn't read in the news letter that the DM will be upgraded in this year.   It is very sad to see that  when  the other visuals are almost look like the real , but the explosions and the DM  is result the same  damage always . (  3 broken pieces of plane , 1 fuselage and 2 wingtips)

The another piece of thing the ejection.
Is there any plan that it will be upgraded ?  sometime the ejection could be survivable if the ejection  
 could acting more realistically. Especially at low and high speed.
It will be more crucial in  dynamic campang, if it counting at all that the pilot is  ejected safely in enemy territory. And the DC engine will generate  a rescue mission or not.
we will have a lot of KIA MIA or POW pilots instead of the rescued ones.

And these two factors are combined also.
Because the DM are acting like this as now. We can't able to reach  to the base or even the friendly territory with  the damage plane.
IF the DM just blow up the plane at every missile hit we can't eject .
Both cases we lost the pilots and the planes.

It does not. You're wrong. It depends on factors like the aircraft, weapon and explosion distance.

I know that WW2 has a new DM  that is why ask what about the jets?
