I recently took a few rounds of 23mm and received an R gen fail a few holes along the engine, then 6 seconds later, I had lost almost 9000lbs of fuel. I'm no expert, but that seems excessive. I can understand losing a few hundred or even 2 thousand pounds, but not the entire tank. 

Hopefully, this can be looked at, as this should not be intended.

Does it really make a difference if you are loosing 9000lbs of fuel in 6sec or in 25sec? 

Besides that, depending on where the leak is, it's possible that the fuel pumps are increasing the fuel flow a lot, so they can cope with the required demand to the engines.

I just watched the TacView back, and I lost all fuel within 20 seconds. So, call it time dilation; either way, it was too fast. I went to idle immediately after I noticed the fuel leak, which was about 12 seconds after getting hit when my bingo went off at 5k, and it was 9k before I began the attack run from 5k to 0, which was then in about 8 seconds. I'm reviewing the track file to see if there is anything else to note.
