The long range and high damage of some missiles allow ships to be able kill enemy ships that outclass them or engage outnumbering fleets. As missiles are consumed on launch, heavy use by player owned ships can become quite expensive. Late game players often have several complexes dedicated to missile production to keep their fleets supplied.
