The love letter to dogfights thing doesn't excuse complete stupidity. I'm not expecting Babylon 5 level of good space battles, but at the very least they could have treated it as a "escort the torpedo boats" fight and not a "bombing ground targets but in spaaaaaace". Some one should have taken one look at the script/plan for that scene and said, "No, that's stupid."
