So, this AI perfectly prepares gamers to online battles, and perfectly replace real pilots in online. If you want more realistic AI for offline campaigns and missions, ask ANOTHER AI, but this one good enough.

Horeshit, this is billed as a simulator; currently it simulates nothing playing offline, it leads to situations that simply never happened, which is NOT the role of a simulation; it currently simulates air warfare during WW2 about as well as HAWX.
It does not prepare players for multiplayer, people using Luftwaffe aircraft against the ai, are in for a serious disappointment, when they realise that hurries & spits run circles around them, leaving them completely un prepared for what they will face online.
There really is no good reason for it, we all know and accept the ai will never be as good as a human, which is why players turn to multiplayer when they want the challenge. Single play offers a structured environment in which to play through specific scenarios, re-creating situations that occurred at the time, which generally do not work well on multiplayer pug servers. Moreover, the number of aircraft involved in the typical single player mission negates many ai deficiencies, through weight of numbers, and the changing situation, removing any need for boosting.
It was this same nonsense used in IL2 which rendered most offline play useless from an historical or simulation perspective. Players could not manually take off and stay in formation on full real, as engines burn out trying to keep up with boosted ai; or enemy aircraft outperform counterparts that walked all over them irl.
Boosting performance and removing physical restrictions from the ai, all because of 1V1 single player performance is a farce, and destroys any notion this can be considered a simulation; it is little more than half-baked, arcade crap.
