Yes. It would be nice to see more advanced damage model than the current one. Along with visual damage should come progressive damage - decreasing effectivity, lift and increasing drag on damaged surfaces depending on number of hits and ammo type, fuel fire, more detailed engine damage, control lines damage, cockpit damage (instruments, gunsight) and so on.
Can you tell us any info about new damage model please?
