  Compare/contrast
   USS Ross launches the Standard
 Missile-3 used in recent ballistic missile
 testing: https://youtu.be/0HgEJu68JAE
  (This particular launch is an SM-3
 launched to intercept a ballistic
 missile.) How does this compare to
 your personal vision of missile bay
 weapons?   --

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I've always envisioned it to be more like the way SSBNs launch their ballistic missles where the rocket engine doesn't ignite until the missile is propelled clear of it's 'bay' by some other method.
