I'd like to dig up & read the article.
Was it in the old JTAS?

damage. That’s probably why the article “Fighter Profile: the Rampart IV and V“ allowed multiple fighters to combine their weapons into a single battery to increase their HG rating.
One Rampart V: missile factor 4.Four Rampart V’s: missile factor 7.140 Rampart V’s: missile factor
7 x 20. That might get someone’s
attention.-----------------------------------------------------------------------
