You are correct Puke. But as far as I know all the mods that have "external mount" missiles do fire one shot per combat round and the absence of any magazine or reload mechanism is the justication of the reduced size. Not the fact that they are externally mounted. I could be wrong, but I don't believe anyone was making the case that external mounting itself means the comp would take up less displacment.

EDIT: Oops. I guess Phoenix is making that case.
