Line 28:

Bombs are an unusual weapon system, as on stealth bombers they are unguided, do not require a locked target to be launched, and depend on the launching ship's orientation to aim. Like missiles, deployed bombs are physical in-game objects while traveling to their destination, and thus can be destroyed by certain methods.

Each bomb takes up 75~~ m<sup>3</sup>~~ in a ship's cargo hold, meaning that stealth bombers, with an average cargo hold of 260~~ m<sup>3</sup>~~, can only carry three at a time. In most cases, this will not be an issue as only one bomb will be launched per ship per bombing run, but it can become a logistical factor in larger operations.

Each bomb takes up 75{{m3}} in a ship's cargo hold, meaning that stealth bombers, with an average cargo hold of 260{{m3}}, can only carry three at a time. In most cases, this will not be an issue as only one bomb will be launched per ship per bombing run, but it can become a logistical factor in larger operations. However, a Bomb Launcher I module can hold 2 bombs loaded and a Bomb Launcher II module can hold 4, in addition to the aforementioned ship cargo space.
