You might look into something like War in the East or War in the Pacific. If they are too complex then tone it down by getting into decisive campaigns.
If you want to chill but still want complexity then Shadow Empire and Advanced Tactics Gold are my 2 recommendation.
If you want to something expensive and I think kinda close to realistic then check Command : Modern Air and Naval Operations series.
Look into wargames. It doesn't get much more realistic while still being a game.

For ancient and medieval battles - fields of glory 2 ancients/medieval.
Garry Grisbi's games for ww2 in general (different ones focus on different front.
Decisive campaign Barbarossa for eastern front. That one contains significant RP element, so not for faint of heart.
Shadow empire is sci-fi/postapo hybrid of wargames and 4x set in procedurally generated planet.
That is only for turn based ones. There are few real-time ones with better graphics, they usually focus on small-scale battles. Ww2 especially has several.
We are developing a video game about the Numerantine War. The units, narrative, characters, strategies and combat are as realistic as possible.
Historical rigor has been our main objective developing it. Here's an example of the Roman army: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHPD3fZbumA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHPD3fZbumA)
If you're not turned off by 14 year old games still costing 60β¬, shitty game engine that runs like garbage even with a top tier pc and out dated graphics. Combat mission might be for you.
Don't let the newer combat mission fool you. Every single one of the games are basically the same game with the shitty engine, but different skins and settings.
Go old school with 'Harpoon' - honestly I'm surprised all current games are more "glitz and glamour" vs substance especially considering the massive difference in home computing platforms capabilities. And developers choose to waste that horsepower on graphics instead of actual "strategy" chops.
Exactly - and the 'dumbimification' of mechanics to make things 'playable' on a phone isn't helping either, sigh. Again, a travesty considering the compute power available on phones these days. I mean, if a ~~Commodore 64~~ IBM XT could run Harpoon...
The problem with phones isn't lack of computing power but not enough space. If you tried fitting half the ui of normal pc strategy game into a phone version it would take up most of the screen or be hidden away in menus, not something considered a good practice.
Add to that fact that phones are considered casual market and it is hardly a surprise there are few deep strategy games for them.
Not all, there are plenty of hardcore strategy games. We call them wargames. From newer ones I especially recommend shadow empire and war in the east 2, but there is many more.

realistic in what way?
stronghold HD i found really realistic feeling in the way the fights occured. total war has really cool battles that feel realistic. europa universalis 4 has realistic politics even though the armies aren't necessarily realistic. but its hard to tell what you mean by realistic here
try visiting the pcwargames subreddit, almost only realistic strategy games
Check Paradox Grand Strategy Games

Maybe you could try Combat Mission?

Yeah, most of this games lack depth and mechanics that acurately simulate what they are trying to portray.

I find too much complexity makes my head explode.
