A '''Cylon Raider''' is the primary attack craft utilized by the [[Cylon (TOS-RP)|Cylon Alliance]].

==Overview==
The Raider is a deadly and versatile starfighter, typically manned by three [[Centurion (TOS-RP)|Centurions]], including a commander.<ref name="BGTB_1999_Raiders">''Battlestar Galactica 1999 Tour Book'' (Realm Press, May 1999), Page 14.</ref> Raiders are deployed in massive numbers from [[Basestar (TOS-RP)|Basestars]] to overwhelm their enemies, and they formed the bulk of the Cylon attack force that destroyed the [[Twelve Colonies of Man (TOS-RP)|Twelve Colonies]] ({{Comics|1999 Tourbook}}).<ref name="BGTB_1999_Raiders_2">''Battlestar Galactica 1999 Tour Book'' (Realm Press, May 1999), Page 3.</ref>

While formidable in large numbers, individual Raiders can sometimes be confused by unexpected or unconventional tactics employed by skilled [[Colonial Warrior (TOS-RP)|Colonial Warriors]] like [[Starbuck (TOS-RP)|Starbuck]] ({{Comics|Fear of Flying}}).<ref name="GTNM1_Raiders">''Galactica - The New Millenium'' (Realm Press, September 1999), Page 11.</ref> Certain Raiders are piloted by a single, highly advanced Cylon, such as those [[New Life Process|Centurions converted from humans]]. As such, Raiders piloted by these enhanced Centurions demonstrates superior combat capabilities, including the ability to anticipate standard Colonial Viper maneuvers ({{Comics|Centurion Prime}}).<ref name="BGS3S1_Raider_Tech" />

==Technology==
Raiders are armed with laser cannons and are capable of both space and atmospheric flight ({{Comics|The Law of Volahd, Part 1}}).<ref name="BG001_Raiders">''Battlestar Galactica: The Law of Volahd'' ''#1'' (Realm Press, December 1997), Page 23.</ref>

It is also equipped with an auto-landing sequence that engages if the pilot ejects ({{Comics|Centurion Prime}}).<ref name="BGS3S1_Raider_Tech">''Battlestar Galactica: Season III Special #1'' (Realm Press, December 1999), Page 21, 23.</ref>
