If you make it a seeker that isn't effected by point defense, then it becomes a torpedo that hits close to 100% of the time unless you can outrun it - but its rather strong and can be quite unbalancing if unchecked. You'd have to make it so that it can be knocked out somehow.

Sorry about that, I wasn't specific enough. You could crank up the "Weapon Seeker Dmg Res := " field to a resonably high value -> perhaps 2.5 to 3.0 times higher than most missiles. In this way it will still be a seeker (with less than 100% accuracy) but will have a higher damage tolerance. In fact it will likely sopp up much of the PD fire to allow other seekers to penetrate! I'd imagine quadrupling the damage resistance would be excessive/unbalancing however.
