Having a HE mount doing double damage for only -2 to range without additional space/cost needed seems somewhat unbalanced IMHO...
(edited, I streamlined the idea ) :
Why not trying rather to have mounts change only ranges (considering that bugs prevent damage modifier from working) ?
Create :
* a short range mount : 75-80% size/cost, range -2
* and a Long Range mount : 120-140% size/cost, range +3 or +4 (call this one Long Lance !)
(you can even make more variations...)

We'll basically have a smaller and a bigger missile with same explosive charge and varying amount of fuel.. Neat ?
