calling all jupiter experts, fascists want to launch missles

Greetings

I am in a game with the jupiter addon. I tried
launching missles for the first time last turn. I used LMM as
friendly code I had minerals and fuel aboard for the missles , I had
warp 0 and I launched at enemy planets. I used both a db19 pop ship
and a large freighter since the docs say the ship only needs to be
tech 6 and the docs i'm reading say nothing about whether it could be
a freighter or a low tech pop ship .
Do I need tech 6 engines and be a warship or ? sure I can find
out by trial and error eventually but maybe somebody can straighten me
out . thanks

As far as I recall,

everthing on board has to be tech 6:

To launch a missile, the ship has to be of tech level 6 or above, be
orbiting a Fascist planet, have the necessary minerals in the cargo
hold, warp factor 0 and set a waypoint to the target planet.

However,
to be sure you can always contact the author who has been more than
helpful in the past.
