TIE Heavy Bomber

The TIE Heavy Bomber was an improved, stolen Imperial Design fielded by the Astragon Empire in its navy.

Characteristics
The TIE Heavy Bomber was seen as a great improvement upon the original bomber. Several rectified problems included shielding and slightly improved agility. Its heavy armor was kept, so it was only slightly faster than a regular TIE Bomber.

The basic weapons of two laser cannons have been kept, but they have been swapped for the Ls-7.2 Laser cannons from the Defender, which do not overheat quickly. It has two bomb bays stacked on top of one another. These Bomb Bays could hold many armaments, but these payloads were preferred:

1.Space Assault
 * 4 Proton Bombs
 * 8 Heavy Rockets

2. Planetary Assault
 * 16 Concussion Missiles
 * 64 Thermal Detonators

3. Heavy Planetary Assualt
 * 12 Proton Torpedoes
 * 4 Proton Bombs

4. Space Defense
 * 6 Orbital Mines
 * 16 Concussion Missiles

5. Starfighter Support
 * 32 Concussion Missiles
