An ion torpedo.
- "Ion torpedo away."
- ―Chelli Lona Aphra
An ion torpedo was a torpedo used to deliver heavy ion damage to vehicles and stationary weapons resulting in the disabling of subsystems or more. The torpedo could be launched from a hand-held missile launcher such as the MPL-57.[2]
They were also used by Rebel Alliance Navy during the Battle of Scarif, in which Gold Squadron, led by Jon Vander disabled the Imperial I-class Star Destroyer Persecutor with ion torpedoes.
