I snagged the omega torp today... apparently its one of the few things in the t4 rep rewards that's working properly. Anyway, I gotta say, this torpedo launcher is awesome.
Firstly, you get 5 charges that you can fire in rapid succession (minus global cool down, course) but they're all lil mini vger torpedo balls, not the standard green plasma torp. With a high yield shot comes the big slow moving vger ball, complete with the sound effect as from the unimatrix ships.
The thing i'm loving, in addition to the pew pewness of this launcher, is the high yield shots do dissolve their targets. A quick run of ISE saw spheres just vanishing into nothingness, even the cubes went through the animation, though they still asploded as well so... hrm on that
but still, credit where credit is due. This is truly a fun weapon to have, and its practical! It's got some pretty high dps on it, andcoupled with projectile doffs, the thing recharges fairly quickly so a single launcher up front with this can fire fairly often.

Follow up, does a multi-proc (IE more than one proj officer proccing on a single torpedo shot) regen multiple "ammo" units?
*edit
just for reference, im running a green blue and purple projectile doff so, I really donno exactly how much they're affecting it. I'll get around to testing it in detail at some point, I just know at this point, its destroying stuff like there is no tomorrow and has one helluva plasma burn. Granted, its still not like the magical 1 shot torpedos but still, its nawty.
I will let you all assume what properties come with that. (wink)

I vaporized the mogai and myself in one go!

From what I remember bort (or possibly flakes, don't remember off the top of my head) saying it would function as a volley of smaller projectiles (basically the same way a generic plasma torp functions with Spread).
Now I want's it....... Precious
and yes, the hy can be shot down
Me too actually. I'll reach tier 4 later this week, so I'll certainly pick that up for sure.
We will add a spoonful of sugar.
The medicine will be assimilated.
