This is a player-issue, not a balance problem; to put it sincerely.
Whoever is doing the Novaing in this video seems to be mistiming the launch a fair bit (perhaps they're unaware of the inbuilt 'launch delay' Novas have), but the video happens to also show exactly why people die to these loadouts to begin with: you do not blindly joust a bomber over and over with shields down. If the bomber pilot whose perspective is shown had a SNAC and some aim, they'd have killed Lancer-1 seven times over.
