===[[Missile Launcher]]s===

'''Launcher Size'''
This directly affects how big of a missile may be fired. It also affects the Rate of Fire. A launcher may launch any missile available up to and equal to its size, e.g. a size 6 launcher may fire size 1-6 missiles. Base reload time increases with weapon size. 

'''Reload Rate'''
The reload rate affects how fast the missile launcher may be reloaded and fired. The level of reload rate is used as a divisor to the base reload rate from the size of the launcher. The available rates are 1 - 12.

'''Platform Type(VB6 only)'''
There are two options available here, Ship-based and PDC-based. The PDC option cuts the base reload time in half.

'''Reduced Size'''
The options here allow the launcher to be reduced in size at the expense of reload rate. The smallest option, box launchers, cannot be reloaded at all until the ship is inside a hangar or at a maintenance facility.
