Howabout a heavy target painter module that costs more powergrid and capacitor, same sig radius increase, but a longer range?
Heavy Target Painter II:
110 MW powergrid
36 Tf CPU
activation cost: 54 Gj
cycle time: 15s
+30% target signature radius
optimal range: 60km
falloff: 90km
It can be fit to heavy missile ships but will really do best on cruise missile ships.
For ultra long range Ravens or such:
Mega Target Painter II:
550 MW powergrid
48 Tf CPU
activation cost: 96 Gj
cycle time: 20s
+30% target signature radius
optimal range: 90km
falloff: 120km
With max skills, the Mega has 135km optimal and 180km falloff. It'll hit almost every time out to 200km.

I think there are still issues with how long it can take cruise missiles to reach their target when used for long range sniping, but the cruise missiles themselves are great at shorter ranges, too. The single damage type bonus is an extra strong bonus so that it puts the net DPS more similar to a normal weapon system, you know, those things that don't have selectable damage.

5 gets you 10 that anything but a paladin is at less than half its damage with short range ammo.
It's a good point guys: cruise missile ships start to lose DPS at the end of target painter range. Long range turret sniper battleships start losing damage at the end of short range T2 ammo range. Yes, turret boats have a lot more DPS close up, and yes, they can track frigates at very long range, but they slip underneath cruise DPS even before the end of target painter range. Even the Naga can't hit out to 135km with bigger ammo than uranium, and that's with max skills and 3 tracking computers.

I vote the Typhoon goes the route of the Armageddon and becomes a "disruption" battleship specializing in target painters with both a turret and missile damage bonus. Even with three skill bonuses, it can only use two at once, as any given high slot can either have a turret or launcher, not both.
7 high slots, 6 mid slots, 6 low slots, 7 launcher hardpoints, 7 turret hardpoints
