No matter what he tried, I was able to follow. Speed was around 180-220 km/h. I dont think it is possible in RL with wing loading of ~ 180kg/m2. (vs 105kg/m2) If this isnt overmodelling, then what could be called overmodelling at all?

What fuel levels did you put in? Note that I don't know for sure what amount would be anywhere near realistic. Anyway, I found that when I had 70% fuel for my La-7, and 30% for the zero, I couldn't shake him off my tail. But it seems that the AI starts hiccuping seriously when altitude gets very low! Half-hearted scissors, engage! The zero started to fly very irrationally, missing several good opportunities to get a shot, and finally plummeted to the sea (map was Solomons 43).
