In a recent fight I had a problem with targeting the enemy ship, and I was wondering if I was doing something wrong. In the past couple of fights I have had no problems targeting, and was able to fire my missiles from about 100m km away. For this fight I had brought fighters for the first time (still rather new to the game), but even when they were right on top of the enemy ship, it didn't show up as a valid target in the combat overview. As for my missile boats, I couldn't target it at first, but after I had closed the distance to about 40m km, I was able to shoot normally. This would indicate some kind of ECM to reduce targeting distance, but I don't think it will explain my fighters' targeting problem. I'll list the ships below, in case I might have made a mistake building them.
