Do the Rebels have any bombers, as in ships that can be equipped with a bomb?

Don't think so, other than perhaps using a Bounty Hunter on the Firespray and ignoring the faction symbol, according to Wookiepedia; "The Rebel Alliance rarely dealt with bounty hunters, lacking the credits and finding the hunters' methods contradictory to their ways of battle."
Maybe if your opponent doesn't mind though you could use it, or something. In saying that with the Bounty Hunter/Mercenaries getting their faction set soon you will be able to take the Firespray as Slave 1 alongside several Rebel Ships. No longer rebel Alliance but they'd likely have some sweet upgrades over the Rebels.

Rebels do not have a bomber....yet. People are speculating that there may be an upgrade card in the upcoming Scum and Villainy Most Wanted box set for Y's that will give them a bomb slot.

Various rogue squadron games have the Y-Wing equipped with bombs. So I assume S&V or another Rebel Aces to give them that slot.

Not sure what bombs will really add to Y-Wings, but more options for one of my favorite ships is always welcome.

I think that the combination of Ion Turret+Bomb could be potent. Ion a target so that it drifts into the path of a bomb. Kablooie!

There appears to be an upgrade in the Scum & Villainy pack that takes the torpedo slot and is called "Bomb ______", featuring a y-wing flying over an explosion in the art. It will most likely swap out a torpedo slot for a bomb slot, for the y-wing, for 0 or more points.

Basically keeps them from using one in each of the two Torpedo Slots a Y-Wing has.
