Please don't feel that I am intentionally picking on you. You are just the most prolific poster at the moment. :-) The gist of your posts seems to be the same, "I don't like the way things are so they should be changed". I have a teenager who thinks like that much of the time...

Your decision to fire a missile was what brought the chopper to your neighborhood. Like an uninvited guest, patrol aircraft can be hard to get rid of. Had you opted to fire a torpedo at the escort and then launched a MOSS in the opposite direction (and employed an additional stealth technique), chances are you would not have had to deal with aircraft at all.

If you choose to use missiles, then you have to expect that every enemy in the area knows where you are and will send over ugly dance partners for you to enjoy. Just like, every time you engage the enemy in shallow water you know that your defensive maneuverability is limited. So do you fire now, move to a better spot and fire later, or do you post a complaint that your in game options are too limited or are not realistic?

If it really bugs you, you have the option to go into the control files and limited the effective range of the helicopters making it easier to get away. They will still show up every time you fire missiles though. Some offensive choices come with an in game cost, that's just the way it is - wishing it was something different is tilting at windmills.
