Damaged aircraft, how accurate?

Post by Hortlund »

An aircraft that has been damaged in aa-combat on route to a target, does it have its accuracy affected? If yes, how much?
The era of procrastination, of half-measures, of soothing and baffling expedients, of delays, is coming to a close.
In its place we are entering a period of consequences..

wonder if you will get an answer to this. And if you will get one, wonder again if it will be more than "no" or "yes"... [:D]

Well, I just realized that this is a rather important question since mods in general tend to tone down the bloodiness of aircombat, and while lots of a/c gets damaged, in most aircombats, the bomber will get through.
 
I have not seen this as a problem because I have assumed that those aircraft that get damaged will have their effectiveness reduced, but I realized that Ive never had that verified before.
 
I know that landbased-aaa does not affect bomber accuracy, but here the aircombat takes place before the actual bombing-phase.

No, damaged ac do not have their accuracy impaired.....
Read something about this years ago when somebody did some testing and found it very disturbing then...

If the damage was the result of A2A attack, yes it's accuracy is impacted. The more hits for damage from this type of attack, the heavier the disruption, the worse the accuracy.
