Very long targeting ranges are the foundation of ships fitted for sniping, but targeting at longer ranges than your weapons' effective range is a waste, not to mention that the targeting modules are taking up space which would otherwise be used for, for instance, tanking modules - so increasing targeting range is always a trade-off. Certain modules (such as warp core stabilisers) greatly decrease your targeting range. Lastly, you can use [[EWar_101_Guide#Remote_Sensor_Dampening_.28damps.2C_RSD.29|remote sensor dampening]] to greatly reduce your enemy's targeting range.

You can find out your ship's current targeting range on the fitting screen, or through an external tool like [[Guide to using EFT|Eve fitting tool (EFT)]].
