Proton bomb

Proton bombs are a type of weapon ammunition employed by fighter spacecraft. Imperial TIE bombers use these for strafing runs on planetary surfaces. A squad of TIE bombers used proton bombs to blast a clearance path through an asteroid belt while pursuing the Millennium Falcon. On another occasion, they used proton bombs, which they dropped on the surface of a planet in the Monsua Nebula. Decades later, the Resistance carried proton bombs into combat by MG-100 StarFortress SF-17 bombers. They were used to bomb the Fulminatrix, a Mandator IV-class Siege Dreadnought during the evacuation of D'Qar.
