There's still a long ways to go before you can truly replicate the numbers in the air, and of course AI/radio are still completely screwed. But there's something to be said for bringing 4 Spits at 36 Ju-88s escorted by roughly 120 LW fighters (110s and 109s). It's kind of a cat-and-mouse game trying to head-fake your way into the bombers to hit them. I'll post the mission someday if other people are interested.

But you can do the same thing with online campaigns against the AI and turn those 4 spits into real people communicating on teamspeak. That sounds more like a simulation to me! I'm scared of playing offline against a cold, dark and soul less computer player.
