It definately does in RFB. I was stalking a Jap patrol boat on a parallel course at night. As it was hours before sunrise, I had plenty of time (or so I thought). However, the moon rising caused the sky to lighten just enough so I was spotted. This occured before the moon was actually above the horizon, BTW. The question about phosphorescense is a good one, but I do not know the answer. I have not made very many night surface attacks in SH4, but so far, I've found it difficult to get in as close as in the RL accounts. Conditions are highly variable though.
