A tried and tested weapon system, the bomb bay holds multiple warheads that rely on the velocity of the launching craft to reach their target.
Each bomb bay is equipped with several non guided high-explosive Comp-X bombs that can be released one at a time. The bombs have no propulsion system and are dependent on the velocity of the launching craft to carry them to target (i.e., dive bombing). Atmospheric shielding intrinsic to the design also gives the bombs a high Time To Live in an hostile Point-Defense environment.
