What does Jango Fett use to kill Zam Wesell in "Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones"?

The story behind the answer

What does Jango Fett use to kill Zam Wesell in Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones? He uses a Kaminoan saberdart.

After Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi capture Zam Wesell, they begin questioning her about the attempt on Senator Padmé Amidala. Before she can identify her employer, Jango Fett fires a dart from a distance.

The dart kills Zam and provides the Jedi with an important clue. Obi-Wan later traces its distinctive design to Kamino, leading him toward the hidden clone-production operation.

The weapon is often described as a poison dart or Kamino saberdart. “Kyber dart” is incorrect: kyber crystals are associated primarily with lightsabers and other energy weapons, not the projectile used in this scene.
