No problem, you have to use different tactics in realistic and sim compared to arcade. In arcade planes are shot down very easily while you have a tank with wings as far as damage is concerned.

But in realistic and sim it's a different ball game, use realistic tactics, when attacking bombers come from every direction other than from behind. Dive at them, pull up at them, head-on and from the side will allow you to shoot them down while keeping out of their defensive fire or through it before they have a chance to shoot you down.

If you get a kill on one pass, great, but don't worry if you need to make multiple passes. Sometimes it can take 3 passes or so on the same bomber before you have mortally damaged it.

I also work on the bombers at the flanks of the formation first to avoid them all firing at me at once.

Wait until you go up against later variant He111's, they have guns every where, you will definitely need to use tactics other than approaching from behind to stand a chance of not getting shot down in a few seconds.
