While they certainly have some of them, Caldari with the Golem, Raven, Tengu & Drake excell with them in 3 diffrent weight classes, leaving their Hybrid Caldari counterparts collecting Dust in the hangarbay.
My character is actually Amarr but if i wanna use Missiles i fly a Caldari Tengu. |

khanid ships focus on missiles and minmatar ships have alot of missile hardpoints accross the board. |

Lets get to the 4 races Primary weapons shall we ->
Amarr = Lasers Gallente = drones Caldari = Missiles Minmatar = Projectile weapons
You state racial weaponry but stating the Minmatar primary weapon = Missiles would be false, so i dont get why you have to try and spin as if it isnt so, minmatar does everything anyways.
About my Tengu, it should for 3B isk. |

Micro Rocket or Mini Missile, not a whole lot of diffrence and theres not really a rocket race or a rocket as a main weapon, its a weapon for frigates but doesnt scale upwards. |

Raven and excel should never go in the same sentence. And Naga would like to have a word with you about gathering Dust. To say nothing of Rokh and new Ferox. |

And we're not scaling up from Frigate-mounted weapons to reach the size of a Sidearm, are we? |

And yeah Raven needs fixing, but it can run missions on easy mode, at least it excells at that, Naga is fine but doesnt use Missiles does it, same for Rokh (well you could equip 4 if you wanted to gimp yourself), cant speak of the ferox, never flown it. |

I beleive the point of stating rokh, naga and ferox was to counter your arguement that rail barges are gathering dust in hangers, as someone who has flown all of the above including drakes and ravens to compare them to i would say that rokh is far better than raven, and the ferox now gives drake a run for its money |

Their secondary weapon choices are important as well:
Amarr = Lasers + Missiles + Drones Gallente = Hybrids + Drones Caldari = Missiles + Hybrids Minmatar = Projectiles + Missiles
The Minmatar have traditionally been the most flexible with ability to choose damage types. I think the Flaylock and its micro-rockets are because they tend to have the highest amount of explosive damage of the four races. Caldari missiles actually focus on kinetic damage. Nothing like firing a solid metal rod at high velocity (whether propelled by rail or missile) to ruin your day.
