Here's an actual answer from an actual law firm:

18 U.S. CODE § 111 - ASSAULT ON A FEDERAL OFFICER
CLASSIFICATIONS OF ASSAULT AGAINST FEDERAL OFFICERS AND THEIR PENALTIES
18 U.S.C. 111 details three specific types of assault against a federal officer, along with the associated charges and penalties.
Simple assault involves forcibly assaulting, resisting, opposing, impeding, intimidating, or interfering with federal officers in performing their duties or as a result of their duties.
Penalties for Assault on a Federal Officer
As noted, no physical contact or injury must occur for you to be charged with or convicted of this crime. Simple federal assault is a Class A misdemeanor punishable by up to 1 year in jail and fines up to $100,000.
Serious Assault (No Deadly Weapon) is similar to simple assault but with two additional characteristics:
- You make actual physical contact with the officer; and
- You did so with the intent to commit another felony.
Serious assault without a weapon is a felony punishable by up to 8 years in prison and fines up to $250,000.
Serious assault with a deadly weapon or causing serious bodily injury is the most serious type of assault against a federal officer when you make physical contact with the officer and do so with a deadly weapon or cause serious bodily injury to the officer in the process.
Serious assault with a deadly weapon is a Class C felony punishable by up to 20 years in prison and fines up to $250,000. Murder or manslaughter of foreign officials is defined under 18 U.S.C 1116.
