Every time I crash in BoP and the game doesn't give a kill, thats mechanical failure and totaly unrelated to the huge amount of bullets striking my plane

BBC reporting a French plane destroyed a Libyan plane just after it landed. It's just like CTA at Manston

Hi Olife, that info on the type of AC was quick from you. The BBC only just announced the Libyan type here.
They say they took it out with an air to ground missile

Incredibly, the Wiki page for the Soko G-2 Galeb has already been updated and refers to the Rafale having shot down one in the Libyan conflict:

Those Galebs and Super Galebs really have been the missile fodder of recent air to air combat.
