What is the chance to jam drones? They have high sensor strength for all 4 races (Warrior II has 7.5, Bouncer II has 22.5)
The equation would be nice

I apologize, at work and unable to actually open that page. To my knowledge that will give you the chance to see exactly what your chances to jam drones would be. If not, sorry I could not answer your question better.

Ah. Yeah, it's just got ships.

Roger, believe this is what you're looking for then.

Chance to Jam = ( Your ECM Strength / Target's Sensor Strength ) * 100%
And if you use multiple jammers:
Chance to Jam = (1 -(1 - Your ECM Strength / Target's Sensor Strength ) ^ The number of jammers of this strength)*100%

Yeah, but the drones have omni sensor strength, which is what confuses me. So would it be 7.5*4 or the total just needs to equal 7.5 or something

I believe you would just match up the the highest strength on your side and use the 7.5 as the strength for the drones. From my experience jamming light drones is fairly easy, if it was cumulative I would expect it to be much more difficult.
