Going slightly beyond your optimal is not a problem but the effectiveness of ECM will degrade more rapidly as you go further away as seen in the table below. | Going slightly beyond your optimal is not a problem but the effectiveness of ECM will degrade more rapidly as you go further away as seen in the table below. | ||

let's assume your ECM module has a 50 km range and a 40km falloff. When your target is within optimal range you have a 20% chance to jam them per cycle of your modules. | let's assume your ECM module has a 50 km range and a 40km falloff.
