No xan, THAT alters ONLY AI Ships, if you want longer firing range for you'r gunners, thy must edit the crewAI.cfg and at least adjust max AA Gun range and Max Cannon range (values 3).
I have those setted for 15 000 meters and about 14 000 with AI Guns, i get to do quite fierce battles. Also you might want to readjust the values for sensors CFG and adjust visual (so you can actually lock the target from longer range).
Then you're good to go in #1
