Space combat game with fragile, filmic, low damage capacity?

Hi all,This might be a strange question but I've always liked the way ships in sci-fi combat scenes usually only take one or two hits before exploding, and capital ships' hulls are rent and explode when strafed by fighters and hit by missiles etc.I know in most space combat games you have shields, and most ships can take some punishment before being destroyed, but I was wondering if there are any games (or mods for games) that celebrate the filmic style of fragile but lethal ships, in which survival relies on agility over hull strength. I like hardcore, one-hit-kills games like ArmA, red orchestra and many flight sims, and I was wondering if there's anything that embraces this in space sims?Thanks! <img src='[url]http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//icon_e_smile.gif'[/url] class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

Off hand I can't think of any game which is like that, the only way you could have that in a game would be to use a cheat like "one shot kills"IIRC Freelancer has a cheat like that.
