As a Mobile vehicle sniper, one shot for 105 points is not much quality. A chasseur squad with a Critical Damage(2) Rocket Launcher is 95 points, and they have ROF 2 weapons on the other 4 guys. I think +1 STR on the rail, and take 2 per slot, and we have a balanced winner.
I think the weapon is good enough, str 15 is quite a lot. Even more so as it has 32" range which is very uncommon. I don't think prodos intentions is that the voltigeur should be a sniper platform, rather it is the drone stuff that is the main focus. So if anything should be done to the voltigeur, I would look at other like boosting drones, or allowing 2 in one slot perhaps.
With that said, I personally don't want to say to much about how armies should change this early in the game. For one only Prodos knows what is intended for each army in the future (they could release something that works perfectly with the voltigeur in it's current form) and to see the full picture of a units value a lot of games have to be played. That is even more true for odd units like voltigeur that has more to it than shooting stuff.
