Yep.
To be fair to IL2 and DT, I don't think that there's a combat flight sim out there where AI uses intelligent section, flight or squadron tactics.
There's absolutely nothing like one flight going high to cover another flight going low to attack a foe, or two sections in a flight splitting up to "box" a single opponent.

Easier said than done. Without radio, signals can only be transmitted if you can see and understand gestures. That might be 50 meters, and only if you're at 2-4 o'clock or 8-10 o'clock level with respect to the signaling plane, and only if you're in clear visibility and are both traveling basically straight and level.
