Kravak defence weapons would carry over like B1/ PDF since they came out
and the game designers forgot people use them. The salvo missles were
supposed to simply missle use, but the long range and smart targetting
use keeps it alive in 54 MU's choice.  Had in the new system used MT
missles the kravak weapons would have been better discribed against
them.
House rules generally lead the designers because of prefferences.

This is a house rule. According to the published rules in MT the MT 
missiles can choose any one target within 6mu (ie., not just the nearest

one); the proposed HMs need to attack the nearest target but can use
their 
secondary moves to make sure that the nearest target is the one they
want 
to attack.

BJs are no use at all against MTMs/HMs.

That's another house rule. According to the published rules, the *only* 
systems that require a '6' to hit MT missiles are the old FT2 PDAF and
ADAF 
- and very few players use them any more. PDS hit MT missiles on 4+, B1s

and K1s on 5+, and each Scatterguns and Interceptor pods kill one MT 
missile automatically (since they can't roll less than '1' on 1D6).
