In the 16th century some navys would take a ship, pack it to the scuppers with high explosives, then try to maneuver said ship into the enemy fleet and light the fuse. The hope was to destroy the entire fleet with one ship. A "hellburner".
It seems to me this would be an irresistible concept for a scifi space opera with interstellar battlefleets. I cannot recall any examples but I sure there must be some.

The Greeks had something like that, but instead of a bomb it had their solders inside. Worked against Troy.
