I can't see any difference between il-2 Sturmovik clouds and those portraited in the new update images - sorry, may be my fault (I find, that the cottonball clouds look similar to those in the PF)...
Here's more what could be expected to encounter on the sky over great britain (or the pacific, for that matter):

and...
...and by the way, the Birds of Prey terrains look awesome. Couldn't those landscapes be altered to fit into the SoW?

I think you may need to look closer, I've never seen anything like this in IL-2:
Notice this is all dependent on sun angle as well, the pics you posted look nice but are more like an oil painting. I think these clouds will behave much more like they do in real life.
The fact that the clouds are modeled in such a way that the exact same cloud can appear puffy like a cotton ball but then at a certain angle look swirling and majestic I found quite impressive. It suggests that there could be wide variation of how one cloud can look under certain conditions - where something like BoP, it looks nice, but is more like a still image.
