I think there is a misunderstanding. "Bunker buster" is describing a function of a weapon, independent from the weapon type. There are various different weapon types that have this ability.

"A bunker buster is a type of munition that is designed to penetrate hardened targets or targets buried deep underground, such as military bunkers." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunker_buster
