Yes, point defence-missiles issue is a very delicate balance. More than any other aspect in SE IV, IMHO. One wrong step and it is either uber-weapon or useless gimmics.

May be you should leave the speed as it is but increase the range ? Or damage resistance ?

We should also take into account the skewed research costs: military science 1 can be researched at turn 3, so point defence weapons are omnipresent from the very start of the game.
