This penalty starts at 0% while at 2.0km or closer. and scales up to 50% loss when at exactly 10.0km from the target. Each rank of Long-Range Targeting Sensors reduces the maximum penalty by 10%.
- Maximum Distance Penalty: -40% at 10.0km
- Maximum Distance Penalty: -30% at 10.0km
- Maximum Distance Penalty: -20% at 10.0km
