  • A photonic torpedo was a type of projectile weapon in use during the 22nd century by Earth Starfleet. (ENT episode: "The Expanse")
  • Photonic Torpedo (or Pu'DaH dak cha in Klingon) are a tactical Matter/Anti-Matter light energy based projectile weapon that is used as a Primary Weapons System used on most War and Starships within the known Milky Way Galaxy.
  • Photonic Torpedoes are a type of torpedo employed in the 22nd century onboard Earth Starships. The photonic torpedo is equipped with a variable yield antimatter warhead. It has the over fifty times greater range than the spatial torpedo. The variable yield was described by Malcom Reed as being able to "knock the com array off a shuttlepod without scratching the hull, or put a 3km crater into an asteroid." Antimatter to the warheads on NX class starships is provided by the ship's antimatter reserves. The maximum yield is 150 megatons.
  • A warning label on the torpedo casings classified the photonic torpedo as an antimatter ordnance device that must be maintained on power at all times. It also included warnings that the photonic torpedo employed magnetic isolation fields, that if breached would release lethal levels of energetic gamma rays. The duty tactical officer was to be notified before loading or offloading the antimatter used by the torpedo. Magnetic devices were not to be operated near the torpedo, as they could interfere with the containment field. (Star Trek: Enterprise)

  • A photonic torpedo was a type of projectile weapon in use during the 22nd century by Earth Starfleet. (ENT episode: "The Expanse")

The It's A Wrap! sale and auction provided a legible image of the label. [1]
  • Photonic Torpedoes are a type of torpedo employed in the 22nd century onboard Earth Starships. The photonic torpedo is equipped with a variable yield antimatter warhead. It has the over fifty times greater range than the spatial torpedo. The variable yield was described by Malcom Reed as being able to "knock the com array off a shuttlepod without scratching the hull, or put a 3km crater into an asteroid." Antimatter to the warheads on NX class starships is provided by the ship's antimatter reserves. The maximum yield is 150 megatons. Compared to Klingon Photon Torpedo, the Photonic Torpedoes are faster and have better trackiong systems, as demonstrated when the NX-01 fired its torpedoes at a modified Klingon photon torpedo. In the early 23rd century, most ships were fitted with photon torpedoes. Photonic Torpedoes were given to and manufactured by the civilian market. Most photonic torpedoes are owned by less advanced powers, but numerous mercenary and civilian starships also have them.
