	Internally, the ship has a different layout from its predecessor. In the center of the ship, the two-man console acts as a central control station, which is operated by the advanced Cylon android models. The forward two consoles are piloting controls and the stations flanking the control consoles are weapons controls, all four stations controlled by Centurions.<ref>This is noted in "[[The Super Scouts, Part I]]" [[bsp:The Super Scouts, Part I\|script]] on page 7, and is clearly supported by on-screen evidence in "[[The Night the Cylons Landed, Part I]]".</ref>		Internally, the ship has a different layout from its predecessor.

	In the only recorded encounter, Captain [[Kanon]] and Lieutenant [[Britton]] discover the A-B Raider while on recon duty in a two-seat version Colonial Viper. Unable to damage it with the Viper's conventional weapons, Kanon rams the A-B Raider, crippling both craft. The A-B Raider's trajectory causes it to crash on the surface of {{TOS\|Earth\|Earth}}, destroying all its occupants except its commander, Andromus, and [[Centuri\|one of the Centurion pilots]]. While Lieutenant Britton is injured in the collision, the Viper manages to limp back to ''{{TOS\|Galactica}}'' to report their findings on this new threat and the fact that the Cylons have discovered Earth.

	The A-B Raider is fitted with an [[automatic detonator]], a self-destruct device that is capable of destroying the craft entirely. After crash landing outside of [[New York City]], Andromus activates this mechanism, noting they had [[micron]]s until it destroyed the ship.
