Are the ships all in the same task force?Yes, same task force and even same task group.
Crew training effect?That's only a modifier to the firing solution.
Did you use the "copy" buttons or manually set up the FC?Copy. When that did not seem to produce the desired result I tried other setups, some of which I only applied to a single ship, still same results.
If this is the case, it is not intentional I suspect either an interface or implementation bug: by "interface bug" I mean that there are a lot of parameters in setting up fire control, and so there are a lot of cases of user error where something subtle has or has not been set which breaks the final fire. The weird part is if all 3 are (you think) being treated similarly - if they really are then it's probably an implementation bug.I think I can say that its not an input error. All ships show the same exact settings on both the combat overview and on the individual ship pages. Their setup is identical, its the same class all have 100% TF training and they are in the same fleet.

So as far as I can tell there is a random element so that with a chance of around 1/5th or so a ship will not fire in final fire, is that correct?
Just a wild guess - take one turret type off the FC and see if it still happens.Well initially I had coupled each turret to its own FC, so 1turret-1FC. In this case either all four FCs on a particular ship would engage, or none would.
How many salvos are coming in? I believe the computer will only auto-allocate so many guns (BFCs?) per salvo.Only a single salvo of 48 missiles hits every ten seconds. There is a pretty much infinite stream of salvos, coming one after another.

(the different Gaussguns turrets just result from a refit. The last one uses a better tracking tech and is thus smaller and was added during a refit, while it would have been to expensive to replace the older ones)
