	[[~~Image:Pre-Cylon War Vipers.jpg\|thumb\|Pre-Cylon War-era Vipers in tandem flight formation.]]~~		#REDIRECT [[Air Force Viper]]

	~~The '''Caprican Viper'''<ref>{{bsgwiki term}}</ref> is a [[Caprican~~ Air Force]] aircraft used for atmospheric flight on [[Caprica (RDM)\|Caprica]] in the years prior to the [[Cylon War]]. It follows an earlier [[Vintage Viper\|model]] and predates those [[Viper (RDM)\|Viper]]s used by the [[Colonial Fleet (TRS)\|
	~~Colonial Fleet]] in the first and [[Second Cylon War\|second]] Cylon engagements.~~

	A Viper flight simulator featuring these single-pilot fighter jets is available through the [[virtual world]] interface for [[holoband]] users. Fifty-eight years before the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]], [[Zoe Graystone]] and her date [[Philomon]] fly atmospheric Vipers over a simulated sea and oil rigs. Unfamiliar with the controls, Zoe accidentally collides with Philomon's fighter, sending both jets crashing into the water ([[CAP]]: "[[The Imperfections of Memory]]".

	~~An even older model of~~ Viper also appears in the virtual world's [[New Cap City]]. Based on a propeller plane and launched from a massive [[Dreadnaught\|dirigible]], these vintage Vipers strafe the streets of New Cap City, derezzing users ([[CAP]]: "[[There Is Another Sky]]").

	~~==Notes==~~
	*Like the Marine [[Blackhawk]] [[Wikipedia:VTOL\|VTOL aircraft]] seein in "[[End of Line]]" and "[[Apotheosis]]", the Caprican Viper seen in "The Imperfections of Memory" is marked with the pentagonal shape seen on the [[Raider (TOS)\|Cylon Raider]] of [[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)\|The Original Series]] and the similar [[Raider (RDM)#Cylon War-era Raider\|Cylon War-era Raider]] in the [[Battlestar Galactica (TRS)\|Re-imagined Series]] and ''[[Blood and Chrome]]''.

	*Interior shots of the Viper in "The Imperfections of Memory" feature several cuts to existing footage from episodes of ''Battlestar Galactica'', including one from "[[Razor]]" that features the cockpit and [[DRADIS]] console of the [[Viper Mark II]]. <ref>http://www.syfy.com/_cache/assets/assets/caprica_episode107_commentary.mp3</ref>

	*The Caprican Viper appears to be a marriage of components from existing military aircraft like the [[Wikipedia: McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet\|F-18]] and [[Wikipedia: Grumman F-14 Tomcat\|F-14]].

	*On his personal website, VFX modeler [[Pierre Drolet]] describes the Caprican Viper as a "Caprica[n] Air Force fighter jet (not a star fighter)."<ref>http://sci-fi-museum-pierre-drolet-com.webs.com/viper-air-force</ref>
