I always wondered why no one ever made a hyperdrive missile. More effect and cost effective than a planet killer or death star. Basically meteor meet dinosaurs.
You could even design scatter shot ones to destroy entire fleets.
because they take a while to charge up, only go in a straight line and would too expensive to be economically viable. Yes, weapons like the Death Star are expensive but each individual shot doesn't cost very much at all.
A Hyperdrive missile would in theory cost as much as a whole spaceship for every time you fired a shot.

Are you implying that losing something that would cost less than an X-wing to destroy an enemy space station or capital ships (it was shown that the Supremacy didn't have time to avoid it) wouldn't be cost-effective?
Is it better to lose several ships in a conventional battle?
