Colonial Viper Mark II

First appearing in Battlestar Galactica (1978). Later remade in the (2003) Sci Fi channel series. The Mk II were a out dated model. Only still kept in use with the out dated Battlestar Galctica. They were some of the only Vipers to survive the first cylon attack thanks to the fact that this old models were not connected to a central network. The Viper is a single-seat craft carrying two kinetic energy weapons, as well as having two spots under the wings to support missiles. Richard Hudolin production designer stated "The only things that we wanted to carry through (from the original film and series) were the mark II ships."
