Attacking a large bomber like a He111 successfully from dead astern would be highly unlikely in reality simply due to the prop wash and slipstream of the larger aircraft, you would be bouncing around all over the place and unable to draw a bead.
I hope that real effects like prop wash will in future be modelled, as it stands you can fly right behind any aircraft and be stable as a rock.
Formation flying would also benefit from this effect, it would enforce correct positional changes rather than just drifting across easily as there is no prop wash from lead aircraft to worry about.
