The TIE Heavy Bomber series was designed as a more powerful version of the regular TIE Bombers. Slightly more durable, the TIE Heavy Bombers also featured a larger bomb bay, so that more explosives could be loaded in. While it wasn't produced in the the quantities that the regular TIE Bomber was, the TIE Heavy Bombers did see some service during the time after the Battle of Hoth. The TIE Heavy Bomber Advanced was taken from the plans of the TIE Heavy Bomber. The only real difference in these two ships is that this ship was modified for a larger payload. The TIE Heavy Bomber was armed with 2 Laser Cannons, 4 Concussion Missile Launchers and 2 Proton Torpedo Launchers.
