Can you break the wings when there are 50kg bombs attached? Wings on weaker planes are breakable by only the force gravity and mass of attachments generate. Extremely easy to do with Hs129, if done well you can lose both wings simultaneously. So maybe the wings of Fw190 are weakened under fire to a point where they can no longer support the additional load of attachment under the gravitational pull?
