Antimatter pods functioned as the primary offensive armament of the vessel known as Ship. Upon impact with a designated object, complete annihilation occurred instantaneously. It seems that antimatter pods also served the purpose of housing antimatter, which was utilized as a propellant source in particular hyperdrive systems. Once launched, their trajectory was irreversible, much like that of a turbolaser; nevertheless, antimatter could be discharged as raw energy, exhibiting comparable destructive capabilities. The employment of antimatter pods was nonexistent throughout the galaxy.
