It's not useless unless Lieutenant Colzet is the only ship you fly. This card is deliberately limited to four ships: the TIE Punisher,    TIE Bomber,  K-Wing, and Firespray. It's a potentially powerful effect that they didn't want mixing with just any pilot ability. Its purpose is to help ordinance-laden ships get their lock in time to fire (especially missiles/torps that can't be fired at range 1, which are tough for low-PS pilots).

Colzet is likely deliberatly excluded, because it could overpower his ability.
