Antimatter warhead

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

An antimatter warhead was a type of warhead that contained an antimatter explosive.

Photonic torpedoes were armed with antimatter warheads. The fact that the Earth Starfleet vessel Enterprise was using weapons with antimatter warheads in 2153 came as a surprise to the Klingons. (ENT: "The Expanse")

In 2268, the crew of the USS Enterprise utilized a telemetry probe armed with an antimatter warhead to destroy the space amoeba. The warhead was a simple magnetic bottle containing the charge, programmed with a timing detonator fuse. (TOS: "The Immunity Syndrome")

In 2373, the Maquis were known to have access to such weapons as antimatter warheads, tricobalt explosives and biogenic weapons. (DS9: "Blaze of Glory")
