And Richard either ignored or forgot the (optional but recommended) 
re-rolls, which boost the efficiencies to 80% against a full-strength 
non-heavy fighter squadron or 6-missile SM salvo and to 60% against a 
full-strength heavy fighter squadron :-/

No, 66% effective against PBs. Check FB2 p.36, 7th paragraf.
