Programming AI is difficult ?? yes .. but what were pilots taught to do during a dog-fight? if they were novice .. stick to leader like glue! .. never fly straight for more than <x> seconds in the battle zone .. avoid battle etc
Average Pilots
Spit & Hurricane pilots Attacked 6 oclock - strong bank left or right
109 pilots attacked 6 oclock - nose over, DIVE!
110 pilots attacked 6 oclock - nose over, dive ?? defensive circle?
Defiant pilots attacked 6 oclock low - bank left or right, give gunner view below
Bombers attacked 6 oclock - steady course, slight climb / falls (this is already being done), yaw tail to allow gunners full view (?)
Veteran / ace pilots
Would have their own specialisd tactics that they found work ,as you stated.
The above would make the game realistic.
