No - raising the difficulty level won't help. Exactly the same thing has happened to me (repeatedly) on VH/VH. I think it may be the "passive AI bug", although I have yet to see that bug clearly defined. It's a real problem for England, as that faction lives or dies by its missiles - many other factions may be could overcome it by just going light on missiles.
It's the biggest single thing I'd like to see fixed in the patch. CA have said they will fix the passive AI bug in the patch, but whether they mean what we are reporting, I don't know. I can just hope.
