'''Flash Bomb''' is the [[Ninja Monkey (BMC)|Ninja Monkey]]'s path 2 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons Monkey City]]''.
'''Flash Bomb''' is the [[Ninja Monkey (BMC)|Ninja Monkey]]'s path 2 tier 3 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons Monkey City]]''. It occasionally throws flash bombs alongside its shuriken attack. Each flash bomb does 1 damage, pops many Bloons including Lead, and stun Bloons for a short duration.
 
In the {{multiplat version of|BMC}}, it is affected by a [[List of errors in BTD5 and BMC (multiplatform)#Sub-Projectile duplication glitch|bug]] that increases the amount of explosions made per pierce increase added to the flash bombs.

Flash Bomb allows a limited amount of Bloon control but its slow cooldown makes it not consistent at group-popping compared to other options for its cost. Its innate Camo Lead popping is often handled cheaper with alternatives such as [[Signal Flare (BMC)|Signal Flare]] or [[Lightning Bolt (BMC)|Lightning Bolt]] with [[Monkey Sense (BMC)|Monkey Sense]].
In the multiplatform version, Flash Bomb becomes much stronger when affected by pierce buffs, mainly [[Monkey Fort (BMC)|Monkey Fort]] and Ninja's [[Monkey Knowledge (BMC)|Monkey Knowledge]] (specifically Ranks 3, 8, 13), duplicating the bombs and improving effectiveness at getting rid of Bloon rushes. That being said, its long downtime between shots makes it not fully reliable when not firing along consistent angles.
Ninja's Flash Bomb MK (Ranks 4, 9, 14) is significant enough to allow Flash Bomb to be affordable on the first round with high enough city level, even in range of a Village without needing to sell the Village.
[[Ninja Discipline (BMC)|Ninja Discipline]] is recommended because it also increases attack speed of the bomb. [[Sharp Shurikens (BMC)|Sharp Shurikens]] is optional, being only useful when needing cleanup of fast-moving Bloons, and becomes less impactful with the aforementioned Ninja pierce MK.
