Just to make things clear, I'm not saying that what happens in any mod is right or wrong. I don't use TM, but I've tested and played against planes that were equipped with the same and similar visual sensors.
As for the fact that planes shouldn't be out at night, I agree, but evidently the game doesn't care. I believe that night factor in airstrikes.cfg is to determine the likelihood of an attack being ordered from an airbase when you are detected. I don't think it controls what the patrol craft do (although, IMO, the patrol craft shouldn't even be out at night WITH radar, much less without). If someone knows some way to stop aircraft from showing up at night, please let us all know. I'd be happy to be extremely paranoid of aircraft at any depth in the daytime (which is how I normally approach them, whether I know what their sensors are capable of or not).
Edit : missed this one

Yep, I've been harassed for entire nights if close enough to an air base.
