It says it gives 3km range per level. Is that to all drones or only electronic warfare drones?

All drones.

Thanks. That's what I thought, but my memory isn't 100% accurate because I haven't played in years.

This is why you get quotes of 57km or 60km control range (mostly relevant for sentries) based on skills alone. Would be pretty daft if it didn't help the one drone class that really needs the range. Also useful for a kiting Imicus/Arbitrator/Vexor/etc.

It's dumb that it does, imo. The drone control range should be the maximum distance from your ship you can send commands to drones, not the maximum distance for targets that your drones can interact with.

Kind of meaningless if you don't qualify what it is you don't like in the first place.
I don't even think I said anything particularly controversial.
