If that video (which is good, by the way) is representitive of IL2, then I'm glad I've never played it, for two reasons.
1) There were no cannon-armed Spitfires in the Battle Of Britain. They hadn't solved the jamming problem with the hispano-suiza cannons and they didn't appear in service until the Spit II came along.
2) Spitfires were built with a multi-thickness spar running through most of the wing. It was impossible to have one wing come off, unless hit by some kind of rocket, or maybe a MK103 or MK108 30mm cannon, neither of which were operational that early. This was also a big error in the movie Battle Of Britain. Messershmitt Bf-109s on the other hand had modular bolt-on wings, and could lose one or the other.
