Default Re: Do Small DUCs suck?

Nethog I observed the same things as you and it is defenitely a major bug, which affects all combats with fighters involved.
Im your example the low hit chance is due to the difference of the offensive (= 50%) and defensive (= 80%) modifier for small fighters. And I also observed a higher hit rate than indicated (in my experience something about 10% effective hit rate when 1% is displayed). I don't know what causes this but it seems not to be the racial characteristics because it's also happening with races that have no bonus in aggressivenes or defensivenes.
I don't see that we can fix this ourselves. The proposition of Nitram Draw to transfer the combat modifiers to the cockpit is excellent, but even this will probably not eleminate all problems. So we have to wait for the next patch.
