The Deathball-IV is a realization that previous models of large fighter-mounted ordnance were a bit disjointed, and fast cook-off time was an issue. With a redesigned casing, the issue of fast cook-off time was resolved so that Deathball-IVs could more safely be stored, and it can also store various varieties of payloads, such as high explosives, ion and incendiaries, which were used and sold under different names, and carried high blast radius and stopping power. However, it still carries the same weaknesses of the predecessors: it damages indiscriminately, which is even more of a problem given the high blast radius, and takes up a lot of space in a starfighter's bomb bay, so, as with its predecessors, it takes up the space of four proton bombs in a bomb bay.
Note: If used in a starfighter, the Deathball-IV is worth 4 proton bombs
