Q about Weapon Effictiveness

Hi,

I've started to work on improving the doctrines for Fighters and made some progress. In my test scenarios (I use a small 'cold war' set F14s against Fighters and TU-142s to test typical missile ranges (Aim-54/Aim-120/Aim-9)) and it looks to me, that the overall Hit% of the AAMs are too high.

I've had a look at the database (use the newest LWAMI version of course ;-)) and the Aim-54c for example has a Wpn Effectivenes of 100. Does that mean, that this weapon has a basic Hit % of 100 ? (minus chaff effectiveness in the end result).

I know from my former experience with the Harpoon simulation, that AAMs had only a Hit% of ~80 (minus modifiers for chaff,ECM, defensive maneuvers etc.) and the end Hit% was only about 40-60.

Is there any reason for this high weapon effectiveness in DW?

Thanks for feedback.
