Nothing scatters a homing projectile. A projectile steered by the homing flight model — one whose ROT is above zero — flies at the aim point it was given, and an Inaccurate=yes setting on its type does not displace that point.

The one scatter a shot does receive belongs to an arcing projectile and is measured with BallisticScatter.
