I also noticed that I am able to get over 100% in defense bonus (ship cap, sensor arrays, ecm, natural bonus, etc)- does this mean I can never get hit?

I think there is always a 2% chance to hit. However the enemy will likely have attack bonuses that cancel out some of your defensive ones. there is a thread somewhere that explains in detail how all this works
