Just remember that the cap only comes into play after the Formation modifier and the Form engagement modifiers are applied.

Formation you can control but not really engagement type

So if for example poor Yamato gets T-crossed disadvantaged she only has a Firepower of 117

139(max FP) + 26(46cm) + 26(46cm) + 5(game mechanic) x 60% (Form engagement mod)

Even in a head-on engagement (80% modifier) she only just scrapes 157 FP
