Do missiles scale with time/difficulty?

I've just built my first Cormorant, but it seems it can only be equipped with cannon. Fine, but there are no cannons available to purchase. Isn't the craft gas cannon supposed to be available from the beginning? Looking through the research file, I can find no reference to it at all.
The craft weapons file lists CRAFT_GAS_CANNON, but the research file does not. The only work-around I know how to do is to give the Cormorant the same weapons options as the Barracuda.
Edit: actually, that didn't work either, and I have no idea why.
It seems an oversight that I'm able to research a craft way before I'm able to research suitable weapons for it. And how was I to know that the craft I was researching couldn't mount the weapons I had stockpiled. As it is, since I couldn't possibly know ahead of time that the Cormorant was a tiny little drone, I have wasted about half a month's worth of research, not to mention the money that went into the project. Since the craft gas cannon is such a crappy weapon anyway, I see no reason why it shouldn't be unlocked together with the Cormorant.
