Throwing a chemlight or a (smoke) grenade at a car creates chunks of debris and smoke
New, WishlistPublic

Description

Observed:
Throwables create large chunks of metal debris, a cloud of white smoke and a visible physical impact when they hit a car (armored vehicles, planes, helicopters and boats show no such effect). This is unrealistic. While some grenades might be heavy enough to break a window, they're not thrown with such force that they could damage a vehicle to the degree that the hull breaks apart and falls down in chunks creating a huge puff of smoke.

It appears that all vehicles of the class "car" are affected.

Expected:
A chemlight/grenade making contact with a vehicle should be audible only, there shouldn't be any visual effect, similar to all other vehicles. {F25665} {F25666}
