No. The size of any "template" weapon should depend on
the ground scale you are using, typically 1 inch to
one point of thrust.

See the top of FT2 page 9; "it is the centre of the
model, or the centre of the stand it is mounted on,
that is used to determine the exact location of the
ship itself."

If on the other hand you are finding large models
difficult to use with the standard scale because they
always seem to get on top of each other, and you have
a large area to work with, you can double everything
including ranges and velocity change per thrust. You
would then double the radius of the Nova template. 

See FT2 page 3, "Units of distance" on this.
