1.) Look in the UT-AT's .odfs (I think the property you're trying to change is referenced in the weapon's ordnance .odf)
2.) Are you really sure you want to do that? It will really throw off the ability to hit anything you shoot at.

they arentxD, because are crossed shooting to same point in medium, they must each one have his own point of shoot for to be parallel

Don't worry Deviss, you aren't insane:
The guns point inward, the rockets fire inward, it has nothing to do with perspective (although sure over a longer distance it would look slanted in, but the above pic is top down at short distance). The game devs thought itd be good to have the ordinances actually meet at the point you were aiming at.
As for how to change this I don't know, it may have to do with the aimer nodes:

second: many thanks you saved me again problem solved look
modified odf of barcspeeder:
WeaponName = "rep_weap_hover_barcspeeder_cannon"
WeaponAmmo = "0"
AimerNodeName = "aimer_frontleft_gun"
FirePointName = "hp_firefront_L"
//BarrelNodeName = "hp_firefront_L"
//BarrelLength = "2.0"
AimerPitchLimits = "-10.0 50.0"
AimerYawLimits = "-0.0 0.0"
NextAimer = "-"
AimerNodeName = "aimer_frontright_gun"
FirePointName = "hp_firefront_R"
//BarrelNodeName = "hp_firefront_R"
//BarrelLength = "2.0"
AimerPitchLimits = "-10.0 50.0"
AimerYawLimits = "-0.0 0.0"
this topic can be lockec problem solved thanks to rep
