Missiles are a gun-mounted, self-propelled projectile weapon. Since these weapons use gun hard-points, they are typically only mounted on Fighters and Freighters with the appropriate hard-point (they can also be mounted on capital ship forward gun hard points of the same class, but that is not a common setup).

Missiles are faster than Torpedoes but do far less damage. Missiles do explosion damage when they hit their target, or when they reach the end of their life. Explosion damaage will also damage any unshielded equipment within the explosion radius, potentially destroying the target's guns and support equipment, leaving them unable to counterattack and reducing their options to fleeing or dying. Missiles are physical-form weapons and so are limited to a certain amount of rounds that a ship can carry. For safety reasons, 70 is the maximum quantity that any dockmaster will load onto your ship at any one time of a particular missile type.
