If a ship has an increase to missile velocity, what does that do mechanicwise?
I know, it makes them go faster, butą.
Does this mean longer flight time (What does this accomplish)?
Being able to hit farther?
Most importantly, does it allow you to hit faster/smaller targets better?
I am a bit of a nooblet when it comes to missile mechanics.
LetĘs assume all missile support skills to 5.
Thank you for taking the time to help out a newb.

Make sure you're checking the correct one, there's missile velocity and missile explosion velocity.
Missile velocity increases the flight speed of a missile, which results in more range as total range is speedxflight time (minus a bit due to launching speed).
Missile explosion velocity affects the damage penalty caused by your target moving around, it's a missile's equivalent of tracking. Higher number is better, so if you have a bonus to expl velocity you'll probably hit fast moving targets for more.

It's missile velocity, not radius.
will this help hit smaller targets???

Not really, unless you start thinking on out-speeding the missile (interceptor).

no, explosion velocity is what affects the dmg you do. Missile speed is just a factor in missile's range (as in velocity * flight time = range)

So, what does Target Navigation Prediction do???
Proficiency at optimizing a missile's flight path to negate the effects of a target's speed upon the explosion's impact. 10% decrease per level in factor of target's velocity for all missiles.

the skill Target Navigation Prediction give 10% to the explosion velocity, not to the missile velocity. check the info on the skill not the description they suck most of the time.

Thanx!
So, without modules, what would be the smallest ship i could hit with cruise missiles?
Again, assuming all support skills to 5.
