in EFH the bomber uses ion missles by default (those blueish torpedoes) and if you press F once, you will have them launched in a 90° angle right below your bomber, press F again to ruturn to the first mode of fire. to look at it just press c often enough, so you can be in the chase-view and watch how it changes.
I didn't realize the missiles had an ion aspect, but they definitely do actual damage.
