>The most super energy dense substances are usually used to make bombs,

By volume or per mass high explosives usually don't have much energy density compared to things like liquid fuels (ie, gasoline) or even solid fuels. This holds true for all high explosives (substances used to make bombs). They're all pretty low energy density. They're just high power because of the low time to release the energy.
