The Fireball is a type of torpedo developed by Rian Wildfire during the Saratoga's mission to the Remus Star Cluster. It used a Satyaran hyperspace window generator to pass through enemy shields and armor and explode inside the hull. The torpedo was further tipped with an N4 warhead; whereas the range of the hyperspace window generator was around twelve miles, allowing the torpedo to begin its transit through hyperspace from inside the ship that fired it, and exit inside the target (if they were close enough), so no easy counter-measure could effect it.

The technology was later adapted into the Wildfire Ball and became the primary armament board the G.S.S. Lina Rowen.
