- ↑ In reality, variants of the Viper existed in the Original Series, such as the craft identified by C.O.R.A. as a "sixth-millennium starfighter" in "The Long Patrol." Calling this a "Mark I" is more in line with the Re-imagined Series nomenclature for the Viper superiority craft.
- ↑ The "First Cylon War" is a term used in the Re-imagined Series. The term should be "Thousand Yahren War."
