    Maybe I'm missing some things. Wouldn't it be better to use a larger missile launcher, and bump the 2 RAC2 up to 1 RAC5?



    On paper it's cooler, higher armor, and has a higher punch. Yes, MRM40 is going to take more time to stream out its missiles, but since you're using rotary I'm already assuming that you're going to be facing your enemy most of the time anyway. As for the RAC2 vs RAC5, I think two RAC2 = one RAC5., but the RAC5 weighs less.

    edit: didn't see that the missile tubes are 10, 5, 2. That's pretty atrocious! the 2 missile tube is going to require 5 salvoes to get 10 missiles out! Putting the 40 in the 10 tube slot means 4 salvoes though, so I still think that's your best bet.

    MRMs aren't limited by tube count and the stream length is the same no matter the size of the launcher.
