IMHO it's pure waste of time to criticize a damage-model you don't even know and think it has to be done in a way that xy happens.
Programming a simulation is a lot more than just a basic concept. For example, your list on effects on an object may work on an RPG-game in terms of resistance, but for a flightsim, that's much to complicated, as you'd have to go for such a list for every single aircraft component. Or do you really think that a tyre has the same resistance or damage effects a wing or strut has? Even for canopy it depends on what part you hit, not to mention factors like angles, munition type and kinetic or explosive energy.

In my opinion just by reducing the number of opposing aircrafts to 2 of 4, and than to be created damage model for each one aircraft type in UNLIMITED depth

Interesting opinion. In my opinion, this is only possible when one or a combination of the following factors are available:
- unlimited financial resources
- unlimited development time
- unlimited manpower
- unlimited CPU and RAM
- unlimited lifetime (of both, programmers and software)
