low range


Explanation:
Hi
In this background, I think that it means "rayon d'action" or "portée".
Totally, it would be "faible rayon d'action" ou "faible portée".

"Dictionnaire technique" of G. Malgorn (Dunod) gives the exemple of "long range" = "à grand rayon d'action".
I hope it will help you.
Good luck !
Cathy
