It was adjusted slightly up - but this was a rather extreme case.
It would be consistent with my guesses and observations that the effectiveness value is perhaps more of a "reverse dud chance" - if it's a 'dud' it won't attract anything, else anything will home. Meaning spacing them at least a little is a very good idea if CMs are giving you problems.
I'm not quite sure about this, and the one that didn't hit probably had a reason for this. (Maybe just enough out of range when the first missile destroyed the chaff?) It would explain this and more. |
Unfortunately they had plenty of spacing, 10 degree fan with 3 seconds delay between launches. I watched as each in turn went active and then climb to detonate in the chaff cloud.
