[Spaceships] 'Triple' bomb size instead of triple ammo count?

So, I'm asking: if I want to use a bomb the size of a whole missile, not 1/3, are there any things I should be aware off, or should I just seek the stats of a missile warhead with (SM of the launcher's default missile)+1?

That might make sense with dedicated bomb bays, where the bay opening would be larger in comparison to the volume of the bomb than the opening of a missile bay would. But with a bomb intended for a missile bay, I don't think it works in general, since shape matters for bombs.
