>six DCS rounds to an engine
try 9. 8 if you're shooting the rear engines.
400 HP, 85% durability, 3 armour
vs
200 normal damage, 50 durable damage, 3 penetration.

((200*0.15)+(50*0.85))*0.65=47 damage a shot to the front engine
400/47 = 8.5 shots, rounded up to 9, needed to kill at point blank range without any damage falloff.
in practice it's 10 because of the loss in damage from drag at range and fighting gravity from shooting an elevated target
