The grenade damage to the Nazis' Aeronca Champ airplane is totally unrealistic. The Champ is built using a strong tubular steel space frame covered in fabric. A real explosion near an aircraft of this type should blow large holes in the fabric while leaving the steel space frame intact but exposed.The filmmakers apparently unbolted the wings and wing struts, laid them on the ground, and temporarily attached fabric or paper scraps to them to make the airplane appear badly damaged without actually inflicting significant and hard-to-repair damage to it; if the fuselage and wing fabric had actually been substantially torn, repairing it would have taken days and cost far more than simply bolting the wings and struts back on.
