seems like one should have the option of shooting bombs!! or at least an upgrade card along the lines of anti pursuit lasers. action roll a dice if you get a hit/crit remove bomb token and take no damage.

We can do that already.

They are called Missiles and Torpedoes.

I think he means "shooting down bomb tokens that have been played on the table."

yeah i mean they are just sitting there. we ought to be able to blow them up!!

Most bombs don't stay on the table long enough to shoot them. As for Proximity Mines, Cluster Mines, and the Conn-whatever, they're too small to hit with any real reliability. Your pilots have a hard enough time hitting 6-12 meter ships. You really expect them to hit a half a meter explosive?
