So, what's the formula (algorithm) for reaction fire? Or is it classified :X

It's simple, move into or moving when in LOS of an enemy unit or fire while in LOS and the enemy unit which has you in LOS does a check to see if it will react; if it will act it'll do so in accordance with either the reaction fire range or filter settings set for that unit.
In other words, being in LOS of an enemy unit does not equal being spotted by that specific enemy unit at that specific instant. For example, you're downslope; move 1 (and no more than 1!) hex forward into a wooded hexon the hilltop. You can see the enemy tanks your scouts further forward spotted for you. They don't spot you yet (too far away and they don't have forward scouts). You now fire first at the enemy tank.
Hmm, so either the americans reports are covering up that their tanks were only greatly superior and not vastly superior as their reports would have us believe or the soviet reports are covering up that their main export tank was, by the standards of the day, c**p. Well, I've made my choice...
