You'll probably have to first assemble a setting that doesn't work anything like real space before it makes any sense.

Well, it would relies heavily on small computers being either unavailable (dumb missiles) or extremely expensive (rare missiles). It actually has little to do with aerial vs. space manoeuvring, as long as the thrust and endurance values of both ships and missiles are such that sudden turns matter.
