(Nah actually Phoenix V. Dunno why, it just makes feel warm and fuzzy.)
One-shotting those Dragons in A Failure to Communicate was a thing of beauty.

Re: Who is the Best Missile?
Another vote for the Trebuchet. Fighters, bombers, turrets, all will fall without getting with 4KM.  Tornado a close second since it's basically like pressing ~+K at medium range.

Plus the Harpoon, of course, for sheer reliability and ammo efficiency.

Also, the Slammer in WiH. It's tricky to use, but it's worth it when you vaporize multiple wings with a single shot.
"We have now reached the point where every goon with a grievance, every bitter bigot, merely has to place the prefix, 'I know this is not politically correct, but...' in front of the usual string of insults in order to be not just safe from criticism, but actually a card, a lad, even a hero. Conversely, to talk about poverty and inequality, to draw attention to the reality that discrimination and injustice are still facts of life, is to commit the sin of political correctness. Anti-PC has become the latest cover for creeps. It is a godsend for every curmudgeon and crank, from fascists to the merely smug."

Hornet. Definitely the Hornet.

(My favorite moments are when I fire bank after bank of Hornets and all of them miss...)

Yeah, but they didn't have Tornadoes back then.
Why do you say "as" instead of "because"?

Oh wait, that's right: he's comparing the Interceptor to the Harpoon. I got myself into thinking that he was only comparing secondaries from the FS1 era.

Harpoon, hands down.

Re: Who is the Best Missile?
It's really a weird comparison, of course the newer weapon's going to be better.
The good Christian should beware of mathematicians, and all those who make empty prophecies. The danger already exists that the mathematicians have made a covenant with the devil to darken the spirit and to confine man in the bonds of Hell.

Re: Who is the Best Missile?
Either the Harpoon or Trebuchet I would say.

Harpoons are fairly good for anti-fighter/bomber work and you can carry a decent amount of them.  Trebs are good for neutering most capital ships from a distance.
