Same thing happened to me in a WW2 campaign battle. A Yak with 16 damage did not go down on the map after receiving the fatal hit maybe 10 hexes from the map edge. It showed as "destroyed" on the Russian roster afterwards but gave only 16 points. Three others were shot down, crashed on the map, and gave the full measure (62 points IIRC). No big deal.
