Merging components into the larger parent unit gives them more support to conduct operations, especially attacks, also you might want to look at the Commander's skills of the combined unit as he might be better then your separate smaller unit commanders were.

What about air force squadrons? Would it be a good idea to merge fighter squadrons?

A suggestion, use thee Nates for LRCAP on the enemy airfields at a low percentage level. This will increase his ops losses. If you say there are little to no replacements and Nates aren't good offensively, then that is a good option. Nates can also be good for CAP as the are maneuverable and the escorts are at a disadvantage. Even if the Nates don't shoot down too many bombers, they can damage them which increases the chance for an ops loss as well as spoil their aim. It is probably very hard to concentrate when a bullet whizzes by your ear . . .
