First shot from my AI ships seems to always go wild

[Daemonjax]

First shot from my AI ships always seems go wildly off target -- as if the aiming doesn't kick in until after the first shot. Subsequent shots (on that attack run) seem to be aimed OK.

The issue seems to repeat between attack runs (jousting behavior).

I see this happen all the time when watching in live stream or when standing behind the captain's chair of my AI pilot.
