A magno-mine was a magnetized, deep-space explosive that could be attached to a ship and detonated remotely. With a large blast radius, the Galactic Empire utilized magno-mines to cause maximum damage during battles involving multiple enemy ships.[1] One was used during a skirmish over Mykapo, deployed by a TIE/sa bomber and attached to the captured rebel vessel Sato's Hammer.[2]

- ↑ The Aurebesh manifest in "The Wynkahthu Job" is too grainy to decipher, except for the odd letter here and there. However, if you go frame by frame when Azmorigan turns off the hologram, a portion of the manifest can be read in a mirror-inverted close-up from behind. It includes the word "MAGNOMINE".
