I think there's armor at work as well. Flying my plane, I need only 1 missile to destroy a MiG-29 in normal missions but 2 missiles in hard ones. A peculiar thing is that despite having to use 2 missiles, MiG-29 is still remarkably weak against machine guns, especially when compared to Su-27 that still needs only 1 missile to destroy even in hard mode.
