That needs some testing I think, I recently got into a fight with an NPC and despite silent running, I could have sworn his lasers were hitting me despite him not being perfectly aligned towards me.
Why in the real world 21st century we have orbiting satellites that can pinpoint people and objects on the ground, yet in the Elite Dangerous 32nd century we can't pinpoint a cargo canister using the ships scanners from 2km altitude...

We all wanted a awesome and realistic game.
Always dreamed of a game that put all of our astronomical and cosmological knowledge into one platform. ... And for the love of G, don't you guys realize what you have here? The worlds first artificial Galaxy? ...Open the galaxy map up to universities and hold a yearly competition for accuracy, while withholding storyline.
Let's say (in our present day world) some guy robs a liquor store. As he is fleeing the scene, a witness takes note of the license plate number of his beat up Pinto and reports it to the police.
The police then put a bounty on this man's head, which can be claimed by just about any citizen with a license to drive a car.
One day, Citizen Goodman, driving along the freeway in his Prius, randomly scans the robber's vehicle and notices he has a bounty on his head.
Goodman proceeds to ram the perpetrator off the freeway.
As the beat up Pinto goes flying into a layby, Goodman wastes no time riddling the perp's vehicle with high caliber bullets from the machine guns that pop out of the hood of his Prius.
With the final blow punctuated by the shrieking flight of a heat seeking missile, the criminal's Pinto explodes in a glowing fireball of angry death.
Citizen Goodman is immediately awarded a 600 dollar voucher, which can be redeemed at the nearest police station.
This scenario sounds absolutely insane when viewed from the perspective of someone who isn't a total nutter, but it is standard operating procedure in the universe of Elite: Dangerous.
