TV Zaunkönig I vs T11 Zaunkönig II - is there an actual difference?

Hi all, title says it all.

It occurred to me, after a lot of time using both the Zaunkönig I and Zaunkönig II, that they don't feel that different to me. I've scoured the game files and the forums and I can't find a straight answer.

Does the game actually treat these two weapons any differently, in any way? Furthermore, the same question applies to the older TIV Falke; I've experimented with modifying its speed to be the same as the latter homing weapons, and it also seems to preform just as well, though of course using the magnetic pistol setting for this weapon would be "cheating." To be clear, not talking about the real-life differences between these weapons, but how does the game actually differentiate them?

Thanks in advance to anyone who knows the arcane secrets.

I've often wondered the same thing. Playing SHIII GWX, I get the impression that there is no difference between a T5 and T11, but I don't have knowledge of the program code to be sure.
