I had two Front-level Air Commanders shot for incompetence so far, and pilots are Lolwaffling well over a hundred aircraft every week in training alone (thankfully most of these are damaged rather than destroyed).
Intel says that on the German side the Bf 109F-2 and Ju 88 took the brunt of the losses. Surprisingly enough, they only lost 27 Stukas. On my side, the I-153 and I-16 account for most destroyed aircraft (War Thunder lied to me), though more modern aircraft like the MiG-3 have also taken severe casualties.
