Yes, but there has been two corrections to this. First the official in the
errata that states that all vehicle damage figures are to be multiplied by ten,
and then Rob Deans TDR Vehicle Design where inop damage is computed as
unloaded weight divided by 1.2 and destroyed damage by multiplying unloaded
weight by 1.7 (with reservations for my memory).
The best (IMO) result of this is that extremely heavy vehicles like tanks
and SDBs get larger damage point totals due to their heavy armor.
