Having a few AMM box launchers on a large, valuable ship might be worth while, say 6 or 9 and an FC (2 or 3 increments of 3-1 fire), to provide a little more resistance to enemy alpha strikes. Not much cost in weight or resources, might stop a big wave from actually killing a big ship, or reduce the damage suffered quite a bit at least

Naturally, you don't really NEED to return to base to reload your Box Launchers... a large Carrier with 7,000-tons of Hangar space and a big Magazine full of size-4 reloads could re-arm your entire fleet of Missile Destroyers in a day or so (a few hours each).

You could even use a Fleet Train composed of a heavy-duty (civilian) Tug equipped with a tractor beam, and a (military) towed Hangar/Magazine/Fuel-Tankage combo, instead of using a Carrier.
