AFFILIATION
Galactic Empire
The TIE Bomber sacrifices speed and maneuverability for raw destructive payload, serving as the Empire's primary ground assault and siege weapon. Its distinctive double-hull design separates the crew pod from the ordnance pod, allowing it to carry proton bombs, seismic charges, and concussion missiles. The bomber's slow speed makes it vulnerable without escort, leading the Empire to deploy them alongside standard TIE Fighters.
