An X-Wing firing ion torpedoes

An Ion torpedo was a torpedo used in starfighter combat.

Capable of homing in on enemies, Ion torpedos carried an intense ion charge, and detonated in a powerful Ion blast upon impacting a targeted ship. The blast was many times capable of crippling most starfighters, being more powerful than starfighter grade ion cannons.
