About fuel usage

I play stock 1.5 and I have read where some run out of fuel.

I can say for a fact that if you get holed sometimes it will cause fuel to leak.

Once a tanker surprised me coming out of a fog bank and hit me with a well-aimed shot. I lost half my fuel--quick. It was late in the war, so I made it to a gas station, they filled up my tanks, and right away my fuel level dropped down to half a tank. I had to hit every stop on the way to refuel but I was lucky to make it back to base.

I think planes or ships can do it also with their smaller weapons although not such a massive loss, but enough to cause you possibly not to make it home.

Haven't tried mods, can't figure on how to install them, but I have been through 7 wars in stock and this has happened 3 times in all.

Something to consider.
