No, it doesn't. At least, it didn't back in 2017.

It doesn't.

Targeting computers increase the chance of critical hits, but only for certain weapons. Although player consensus is generally that these bonuses do not have a pronounced effect in practice.

[...]

TCs do not improve critical hits for other weapons, including:

LBX autocannons
Rotary autocannons
Machine Guns
Missiles (whether SRMs, MRMs, LRMs, ATMs, SSRMs or RLs)

Thanks. So can I assume it works for UACs?

Yes.

as a rule of thumb if you think a targeting computer will help your loadout, it probably wont. it certainly wont justify its weight especially large tcomps.

thats not entirely true of course, some of you pedants would focus on that. the point i was trying to make is that targeting computers dont do enough for enough weapon systems. i usually use the smallest or, more often, none at all.

Kinda sucks because a lot of those weapons are the ones you'd want to get the crit chance for
