I saw the video. The game won't replicate what the SBD pilot managed because:
1) AI does not black out
2) AI can't do deflection shooting, thus they aren't fooled by skidding
3) AI fly strictly leader - wingman, no taking turns
The American pilot who flew that SBD was a very experience pilot. Had he been a fighter pilot he would undoubtedly been one of the good aces. This story was a one off, I would not expect any other such encounters to end with the SBD alive.
