Draconian bomb

William "Buck" Rogers retrieves a Draconian bomb to use in his act of sabotage against Draconia's Hatchet fighters (BR25: Film, "Awakening").

A Draconian bomb refers to the ordnance loaded on Hatchet fighters.

William "Buck" Rogers, in his guise as a Draconian soldier, uses this ordnance to devastating effect by placing it in the engine exhaust of the Hatchet fighters before they launch from Draconia. Upon being thrust from their launch channels, Hatchet fighters engage their own engines—which detonate the ordnance to both the confusion and humiliation of Kane and Princess Ardala (BR25: Film, "Awakening").

Notes

Kane approaches a communications device, which is a re-use of the Draconian bomb prop (BR25: "Flight of the War Witch, Part I").

• The prop is later re-used as a piece of set decoration—a communication's device outfitted with a red light—in Ardala's quarters in Buck Rogers in the 25th Century's "Flight of the War Witch, Part I".
