Looks like a good change overall. I have slight concerns about exactly how the sig radius and speed will interact with missile damage, specifically for MWDing interceptors. A MWDing interceptor should take very little damage from Cruise missiles IMO. Of course, it's impossible to really comment until I've seen the numbers for myself on Sisi.
On another note, will this missile overhaul bring any changes to Stealth Bombers?

in general i am a missile user crow raven etc and i think these changes are fair enough and longer overdue they will help in fleets and stop some effectivness against frigs with bs sized missiles but 1 thing i find too overnerfed is the standard missile launcher's new fitting req's doubling while a crow can slap on 3 malk standard launchers and be ok our mainstay normal frig the kestrel is slaughtered by this needing >>12<< more pg to fit 4 launchers

I assume standard missiles and rockets will now hit other frigates without the need for a web. Given that they do similar DoT to turrets, increasing their fitting to turret levels seems perfectly fair. Missile frig users have had an easy ride on fitting for a long time.

meet the gank crow:
3 arb std
mwd, 2 sensor booster IIs
3 bcus
orbit at 50km with any tackler tackling ur target, you cannot be hit.
This will admittedly own interceptors and frigs if they don't warp out immediately. It shouldnt cause much trouble for larger ships(or even a Harpy) with a target painter though.

no, most cruisers cant do enough damage at 50km, and dont forget, the crow can easily st ay out of your range at 84km or so
You don't need to be able to do much damage to take down a crow. Also most cruisers and AFs will be able to tank the damage, at least long enough to align and warp out.
Don't get me wrong. I do think its a problem, just not a major one for AFs and Cruisers.
The divebombing described above will be far more overpowered. 6-7 volleys of the right type of missile hitting at once will kill mosts AFs, bypassing their tank entirely.

The same would be true versus a turret BS if they also had no web or target painter.
