For the
Luftwaffe, the material declassified in the meantime would, I think, make all the difference. Prisoner interrogations were classified in Britain until the 1990s (although you could get them from the USA) and signals intelligence data are now readily available; much more work has been done on German claims and losses; Allied Technical Intelligence reports on crashed aircraft are better exploited now than they once were ...
Andrew Arthy and Morten Jessen's "The Fw 190 in North Africa" shows the sort of detail that can now be achieved.
