I know than this was maybe not the case for the RAF and maybe not during the battle of britain but sometimes the orders where very strict about formation flying and at least for germany at the end of the war and for Soviet union, the pilots where told to not leave the formation under any circumstances (even if being downed one by one) although this behaviour would be acceptable in the game only for noob AI.
What bothered me about Il2 1946 other than the stranges manoeuvers was the fact that when the AI was anything better than noob it was impossible to surprise the enemy, even when approaching in his low six when he was heading alone for home, being under 500m and he started an evasive manoeuvers.
