I have made this mistake. I think I forgot the range on the rockets.
People seem to be putting proton rockets on ships with 2 evade and 3 attack
You could slap a stealth device on the Khiraxz with prockets to get five dice at range one. That's probably not worth the six points it costs, but at least it makes some sense . . . .

Well, fortunately, the Stealth Device is pretty good to have just for it's own ability.
Of course, if you take a hit before you can fire off the Rocket, then you really did waste points.
Not really on topic (or that good) but I've gone buckwild with Rymer for giggles a couple of times:
Major Rhymer + Advanced Proton Torpedoes + Extra Munitions + Proton Rockets + Push the Limit + Stealth Device (43)
If you're (ridiculously) lucky and manage to evade the inevitable onslaught and fire 3+ times with Focus and Target Lock It's hilarious. Rhymer built this way easily becomes the highest priority target possible in this game.

At least he doesn't give up half his points when taken down to 3 hps.
Unfortunately those last 3 hps will be gone quick. Sounds like fun tho.
