I mentioned this few times in that chat on forums, whatever you call it but it seems no dev would see it. Perhaps because, during particular period, you can only see particular stuff.
Catapult missle launcher. Most people do not know about it's specs. It's unguided, rapid firing missle. Hellfire missle launcher for fighters but, you can only mount one. (WHICH IS GOOD OMG DONT CHANGE IT)
Since, I'm using that launcher, and I really like it, I would like to propose following:
Since it's rapid firing, unguided missle launcher, it needs adequate launcher model - Switch it with old Sidewinder misle launcher, which looks larger and has multiple tubes in it.
Currently, it looks like any other, guided, slow firing missle launcher. I know that it's just cosmetics but for me, it would be really cool addition and of course, would be legitimate.

It could also use either a bigger refire or a slight drop in energy. A LF with one cannot sustain any sort of DPS.

I will agree with Mr. Sindroms when it comes to energy consumption. I wouldn't agree with higher rate of fire, or even touching the DPS.
Higher rate simply because, it wouldn't make it any easier to hit. Perhaps would make you even more blind. Projectiles do not go straight always, they have some sort of recoil, which is fine.
Lower DPS would make them not usefull, while higher DPS could be a bit too much.
My general opinion, since I believe I use them a lot more than anyone else on this server (considering that 90% of people that I interacted with asked me what are those) is that they should remain untouched when it comes to DPS and refire rate. Slight energy consumption would be nice.
Also, don't forget the model!

I have a feeling Haste gave it energy consumption just so I couldn't use my triple Catapult Starflier : (
It's a niche option that definitely should not have energy consumption. Hellfires don't either (and they're not a niche option).
All normal vessels can only mount one; one of the Starfliers has outdated hardpoints that allow it to mount three.
Irrelevant as it cannot mount guns, has a class 3 shield and like 1800 hull. Plus, pretty much nobody owns one.
