The ships within a group certainly will pass sensor information amongst
themselves, but how will this increase the effectiveness of their weapons
fire? A ship firing at a target from just within its extreme weapons range,
using sensor data handed off to it by a closer ship, will still face the

same problems of attenuation of its weapons fire.

The situation where this ability would help would be in game using sensors and
electronic warfare, ships able to 'see' a target can pass the targeting data
on to other ships (who for whatever reason can't 'see' the target) who then
use this information to generate their own fire control solution. But sensors
and EW are an optional extra and in the average game of Full Thrust every ship
on the table has an 'automatic' fire control solution on every other ship.
