NPC's not shooting back?!

Anyone else notice this? I thought it was only limited to the Resource Extraction Site's but apparently it is also happening in USS areas as well as when I interdict NPC's.

They simply do not shoot back, they take evasive action and sometimes deploy chaff, but that is it. A few times I have seen them shooting in random directions. Maybe in 2 out of 10 fights the NPC will actually attempt to shoot back.

I find this happens often when I go into combat, mind you, it could be that most of the time, I try to keep myself at the end of the ship that does not have the guns attached.

Out of the 5 dozen or so NPCs i've interdicted over the last two days I'd say it's a roll of the dice as far as how they'll fly. I've had Mostly harmless adders put up more of a fight and fly better than elite vipers. Rank hasn't actually given me any kind of a heads up as far as the difficulty of the fight. Again I've had elites fly like Mostly harmless and mostly harmless that flew like elites.

One thing I have noticed and it could be just me; is NPCs, do seem to get harder to get into to my gun sites, the lower their hulls get. Often the last 5%, is harder to take down than the previous 95%

and Eagles can be a real pain.
