At each TL, take the maximum range possible, then 75%, 50%, 25%, and 0% of that and rank the top three DF weapons for space efficiency for killing the best missile available at that TL. Metric is: 10^3 * Accuracy * MultFire/(Space * Shots_per_kill * FireDlay) LFGs are excluded, currently. I assumed no time available for shield recharge.
