Tank War Crew Skills

This may have been raised before. I was looking through the Tank War book and came across this Commander ability:

Eagle Eye: Play when this vehicle is nominated as a target of a ranged attack or assault. If this vehicle has LOS (line of sight) to the attacker, it may react by shooting at the attacker with any one weapon that has LOS to the attacker.

It makes no mention of whether the tank using this ability has already taken an Order or not.

A few of the other abilities also have this issue. Reading strictly from the wordings it seems the tank can fire at any attacker, regardless of whether or not it has already taken an Order that turn. Any views on this?
