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").
