A few questions:
1.Will droptanks explode violently if they are hit?
2.Will there be jamming stations in SoW, so the radiocantact can falter?
3.If planes are very much used in a campagne and the engine is almost broken and almost al the paint is gone, can the engine be changed and can the plane get a new coat of paint? Or will you get a new plane? |

A FULL tank is not going to explode(only in Hollywood), it could catch fire though.
For an explosion you would need a fine spray of fuel.
You may want to try that a home(outside, on an empty parking lot) Take a plastic bottle, fill it with fuel, leave 1inch to the top.
Have something to seal the bottleneck ready.
Light a match, throw it in and tell me what happened.
A: most likely the match will just extinguish in the fuel, just like in water.
B: The fuel catches fire, you got a tiny flame coming out of the bottleneck.
Seal the opening and your fine again.
Now if you try the same with only a few milliliters(DON'T!), resulting in a mix of lots of O2 and fuel fumes inside, the bottle most likely is going to blow up in your face.

How long are you willing to wait fore the paint to dry? Honestly, I don't think they did some "ad hoc on the field" paint jobs.
