'''''Adriatic''''' is a civilian ship in the [[The Fleet (RDM)|fleet]] that escaped the [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies|destruction of the Twelve Colonies]]. It is the only known civilian vessel to be armed.
The '''''Adriatic''''' is the first ship in [[The Fleet (RDM)|The Fleet]] other than ''[[Galactica]]'' and ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' that is known to viewers to have weapons. It is armed with ship-to-ship missiles of a limited range. Its class is unknown.


Shortly after the discovery of {{RDM|Kobol}}, ''Adriatic'' joins [[Roslin Faction|Roslin's fleet]] that jumps to the planet to find the road map to [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]]. It is in weapons range of {{callsign|Starbuck}} and her party's stolen Cylon [[Heavy Raider]] when it returns from {{RDM|Caprica}}, though it does not fire {{TRS|Home, Part I}}. ''Adriatic'' and other ships of Roslin's fleet are reunited with those that remained loyal to [[William Adama]] and ''{{RDM|Galactica}}''.  
This ship, or at least a majority of her crew, were part of [[Roslin Faction|Roslin's fleet]].  


After the fleet is stopped by a great [[Passage_(star_cluster)|star cluster]] that puts out immense amounts of stellar radiation, the senior staff decide that the best way to proceed is to shepherd the civilian ships to the other side by using hardened Colonial [[Raptors]], which will be able to "see" for the blinded civilian crews. ''Adriatric'' is among the vessels chosen for outbound trip 1, along with ''[[Zephyr]]'', ''[[Chrion]]'', ''[[Pyxis]]'', ''[[Cybele]]'', ''[[Thera Sita]]'', and ''[[Enkidu]]'', and is escorted by Raptor 118, piloted by [[Brendan Costanza]]. After offloading non-crucial civilians to ''Galactica'', the vessels proceed. However, ''Adriatic'' is lost when Costanza fails to locate it in the cluster and is forced to jump to the next waypoint to avoid radiation poisoning {{TRS|The Passage}}.
It was in weapon's range of [[Kara Thrace]] and her party's stolen [[Cylon Heavy Raider]] when it returned from [[The Twelve Colonies (RDM)#Caprica|Caprica]], though it did not fire ([[Home, Part I]]).

==Notes==
*''Adriatic'' is never explicitly seen on screen, but it is presumed to be one of the ships in the above screenshot, and through the process of elimination, it is either the ''Astral Queen'' type in the middle, or the ''Defender'' type at the top left.
The name of the ''Adriatic'' is yet another naming anomaly, as it appears to be named after the [[Wikipedia:Adriatic Sea|Adriatic Sea]], an arm of the [[Wikipedia:Mediterranean Sea|Mediterranean Sea]] that seprates Italy from the Balkan peninsula on [[Earth]].
*''Adriatic'' appears to be named after the [[Wikipedia:Adriatic Sea|Adriatic Sea]], an arm of the [[Wikipedia:Mediterranean Sea|Mediterranean Sea]] that separates Italy from the Balkan peninsula on [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]].
*In addition to the body of water, the [[Wikipedia:White Star Line|White Star Line]] named two of its vessels ''Adriatic'', one entering service in [[Wikipedia:SS Adriatic (1871)|1871]] and the other in [[Wikipedia:RMS Adriatic (1907)|1907]].
