The Rebel Bomb is a warhead used by the Neo-Terran Front in FreeSpace 2. While statistically inferior to the GTM Cyclops, the Rebel Bomb poses a significant threat to unarmored civilian and non-combatant craft and, when used in large numbers, can overwhelm armored transports and cruisers.

Half the damage of a GTM Cyclops, but otherwise identical.


FS1's Tsunami warmed over, even has the same model ingame. Should make you chuckle.
