Big bug in air combat!

In UV2.30 the quantity of fighters seem no longer to be a factor in aerial combat!! 8 Zeros could take on 100 F4Fs or P-40's and slaughter them!! The result would be something like 1 Zero destroyed, 2 Zeros damaged. 18 F4F detroyed, 13 P-40 destroyed..plus damaged. On other hand, F4U could do the same thing to the japanese figher armarda! I just have 1 squaron of F4U defending each important base. And they are dead tired (fatigue over 40). Cap 30. Yet, the 8 F4Us in air could shoot down 15 zeros and a number of bombers depending on the number of attacking bombers, with minimum loses! This is just not right!! Quality of fighters make difference but it is way overemphasized! Quantity still plays a bit role during that stage of war. The outcome of arial combat certainly depends on numbers if there is not a HUGE gap between technologies. Please consider it.
