Speed and Sensors
Source Tech Core pg. 206
NPC starship abilities should always have a maximum range equal to its sensors value. Melee Strikes typically have a range of the starship's zone, and ranged Strikes have longer ranges. Use the Ranged Starship Weapons table to determine an appropriate range for the starship's attacks.
NPC starships need a Speed and sensor range. Guidelines for the Speed and sensor range of an average starship by size are listed here. These numbers can be adjusted up or down, but usually an increase to one should be accompanied by an equal decrease to the other.
NPC starships with a high Speed often have different strategies from those with high sensors. Fast starships can take better advantage of positioning, while starships with more powerful sensors have a wider area of effect for non-Strike abilities.
