Bomb

A bomb was an explosive device designed to explode under specified conditions. The blazer bomb, electro-proton bomb, Electro-Proton Bomb/Defoliator, gas bomb, molecular purge bomb, plasma bomb, proximity bomb, viral bomb, VL-61/79 proton bomb, and ion bomb were bomb types that saw use in the galaxy. Bombers were starships designed to strike heavily armored targets and armed with projectile weapons such as proton torpedoes, proton bombs, and concussion missiles. Kyber crystals were normally used to power lightsabers, but could also be used to power other weapons. People had tried to make kyber bombs and kyber blasters, and there were a few weapons of that kind in the Jedi Archives.

During the Clone Wars, the infiltrator demolition droids of the Confederacy of Independent Systems have explosive charges that allowed them to self-destruct in blowing up the central power distribution grid on Coruscant. The action of these demolition droids caused a mandatory blackout, thereby stopping the vote for the bill to deregulate the InterGalactic Banking Clan.
