I have always agreed that this is a very big problem with this sim. The problem is there is just no incurred damage from a shot up cooling system. The damage model has/had 2 major problems in my opinion, the wings blowing off bombers (fixed now) and the cooling systems.
At the moment you can travel the entire channel at full throttle without worry of overheating. It takes an extraordinary amount of time for a plane with shattered radiators to suffer any performance drop or overheating.
Testing on single player you can see this clearly that bombers and fighters both English and German always get back to base without hitch. It is fuel and oil failures which cause all the failures. On multiplayer things don't generally play out that long before someone spawns a new plane again.
Also, it would be awesome if we could get effects from coolant damage on the pilot from ruptures in the engine bay.
