Your missile is larger than your launcher.

See that MSP in your missile design?  17.8.   MSP stands for missile size points, or something.

Your size 6  box launcher can only shoot size 6 missiles.

Make a normal missile, and the launcher will work fine.

Just so you note, its .89 HS-- thats hull space, which is 50 tons.  Thats a 45 ton missile.

Ok so i assume you have small missiles now. 

Look at the ship design screen.  Click "ordinance/fighters" tab.  Assign the missiles to the ship!

They are 6.0, not 6.1 or anything like that?

And, your researchers researched the missile design?
And you manufactured them in ordinance facilities?

Might want to design a proper MFC (Missile Fire Control) instead of using that conventional ICBM thing, too.
