Do they simply stay on you and not SHOOT?

That's not really the same thing as literally "loosing sight of me."
Are you 100% positive that not even the tiniest speck of your plane was visible to the AI - they still got bird of prey eyes when they have acquired you as a target? And are you outside of their ca. 5 km sight radius when you leave the clouds again? I am not sure, but I think AI is able to immediatley reacquire you as a target when you only temporarily disappear from sight.
