I play freelancer for about 10 hours now, but i just cant figure out how to fire any sort of missile, "Q" just doenst seem to work, although i have missiles onboard. Maybe by ship isnt even capable of firering missiles ? ( i got a pretty bad one though, but its called a battle ship, dont know the exact name )

Are you sure you have the appropriate missile/torpedo launcher installed on one of your ship's hardpoints? In addition to buying the ammunition, you also have to buy the launcher.

Maybe all you have is the ammo stored in your cargo hold (perhaps picked up with tractor beam off of destroyed enemy craft), but nothing to launch them with.

Some missles you won't see launch either.
And, a lot of the time they don't fly straight out in front of you for you to even see them...I have launched them and they have flown out my aft!
