Multiple munition slot firing order

[shoot the medic first, retard]

Does anyone know if the order of firing multiple munition slots is deterministic and if it can be controlled? It would be important to fire armor piercers first and missiles/torpedoes second.

[TeacherGalante]

Armour piercing munitions are faster than guided missile munitions. Fire them both in the same turn from the same ship, and the APs will hit first. Torpedoes are faster than both (iirc), so you'll have to have one ship (closer to the enemy) fire APs while a second ship with torpedoes (a bit further away from the enemy) fires torpedoes for the timing to work out.

[Half Phased]

The firing order is based on the slot order. However, be aware that certain munitions such as nukes have firing delays and will appear to break that order.
