Can we ditch the mandatory first-shot miss?

I know this is "working as intended", but it's still dumb, and especially for heavy weapons it costs a fair chunk of their damage. These guys are the ambush from the Queen's Herald missions, firing Blast Mortars. As you can see, they don't get many shots per run with these heavy guns, and of those the first (and sometimes second) miss my parked Astrid. Not only is the ship entirely stationary, it's a size above the fighters attacking it. There's no good reason for them to miss these shots.
