Don’t some aircraft also have G limiting to avoid bending the airframe
Yes, chap in Germany pulled the wings off an F-15 while giving an impromptu air display, following refueling had forgotten to tell the computer he had full drop tanks, computer then didn't give him the correct 'g' limit warning tone in the headset, in his haste to get going had also forgotten to strap in so no successful ejection.
