When running the Advanced Military Career Agent, mission 7 is Weapon of Choice, which has a player using the racial weapon preference to kill a hostile. While most races need only a weapon to achieve this, Caldari need "two" in the form of the launcher and the missiles. A Civilian Light Missile Launcher is provided, which requires no actual skills to use, but no missiles are provided.

To access the missiles, if a new player hasn't trained them yet, will be a 2-hour wait (1 hour for Omega characters) to reach Missile Launcher Operation II and Light Missiles I.

Once upon a time, in the old old Aura tutorial, Civilian Scourge Light Missiles were also provided, which similarly have no skill requirements.

It would probably be helpful to have these Civilian Scourge Light Missiles made available again so that people aren't stuck waiting an hour or two to continue the mission, especially after all the effort undertaken to create a more engaging tutorial with the Drifter Hive.

Furthermore, the most effective ship the character has been gifted by missions up to that point is a Merlin, which has no launcher hardpoints. Even if you do train for Light Missiles 1 and buy those missiles from the market, you have to switch back to the Ibis to fit them.

(I have read in other threads that the mission doesn't actually check for weapon type, so you can just go one-shot the pirate with anything to complete it, but the whole situation is ugly.)
