Planes do need a nerf I can 100% aggree with you on that. I don’t think this is the way to fix them though.
Planes are annoying because there is not much of a way to counter them besides jumping into one yourself and shooting it down which I do all the time. I have seen some great ideas such as pre built AA found on the maps. Fixing the Planes damage models so their easier to shoot down. Adding a take cover mechic such as lying down in buildings or trenches reduces or negates the damage. These would add more of a way to counter them

Those are all good ideas, except pre built AAA should be manned by players. AI AAA could work as a warning by opening fire towards an incoming plane, but it wouldn’t be a healthy mechanic for planes to be subject to RNG anti-air AI fire.
On the flip side of the coin, even without resorting to dynamic terrain deformations, dropping 250kg bombs into a wood should flatten vegetation at least within a pair of dozen meters radius. Any tree/bush that can be torn down by a tank rolling over it, should be taken down by a bomb blast too.

Not a bad idea - but TBH air doesn’t need to have any abilities added - even realistic ones!
It would be nice and open tactical possibilities, if it wasn’t that bombs spam could easily wipe out ALL vegetation in a matter of minutes.
Fix AA … Make it easier to damage and kill the fly bastages …

Planes need to 100% be nerfed massively. I started playing recently and planes are one of my two biggest complaints. It makes the game not even fun at times and your entire squad gets wiped over and over and there is nothing you can do about it.

If you want realistic bombs, then of course your bombs should be able to kill your teammates too.
I’d be ok with that.
You know I here this expressed quite often and it’s not exactly true. There are things you can do but the problem is they are no very rewarding.
One of the things you can do is to spawn in a fighter yourself and chase the devils from the sky. And if you were to do this then you could prevent the CAS from falling on your head and the heads of your team.
But from a game standpoint you wont be getting much XP for your efforts or time spent and so most people dont think this is really an alternative.
Heres the problem … game time spent dropping bombs is time well spent and rewarded … and Game time spent preventing the dropping of bombs is not rewarded. That’s really what this all comes down to.
Make it more fun and rewarding to spend time fighting against and destroying the bombers and players will do it … And overall CAS will not be the factor that it is today .
And DEVS if you cant make an air game that is both fun and rewarding for both sides them your wasting your time …

As long as teamkills cause negative xp that might fix a lot of the issues with planes.
Given that it’s built in part with Gaijin supporting, that’s not actually an infeasible idea. War Thunder AI are minimalistic , but effective at what they do - pad numbers and strategically support maneuvers. Planning out AI that can maneuver with limits in a 3D space with no obstacles is far easier than AI that can realistically maneuver in a 3D space with many obstacles.
