Only ships that can fire homing missiles are Balor and that M size bomber (cant remember the name). Perhaps it was one of those M bombers that attacked you (i seen them in OL i think) ? As far as i know all fighters use V-Crushes unless you have mod or it has been changed with patch when i was not playing.
Just observed this again. This time I double-checked and it was a Triath Vanguard that launched the missile at me. After I moved away, it arced around in the mini-map and headed towards me.

In the following screenshot, you can see the ship in question, and the missile to the left. You can also see the curved arc of the missile's smoke trail as it aims back towards me. None of the other fighter icons nearby are Drostans.

I edited one of my posts some time ago about that. It seems that Golems are capable of using them as well according to roguey. http://roguey.co.uk/xrebirth/ships/golem/

All though it is hard to noticed them do to their poor aim. If you didn't say something about it I would never noticed or known about it.
It's not world hunger because we can't feed poor,it's because there will never be enough to feed the rich .....
