Sleeper bomb

Legends Linked from 6 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

A sleeper bomb was an explosive device which was attached, while dormant, to its intended target in order to avoid detection. When the bomb was activated, it gradually collected the power for the explosion from a nearby source, making it even harder to detect. A sleeper bomb was used to compromise the hull of the Millennium Falcon en route to Ammuud, in 2 BBY.
