The Colonial '''Temporal Viper'''<ref>{{bsgwiki term}}</ref> is a modified primary space superiority fighter and attack craft designed by {{alt|Zee}}, and deployed by a reluctantly exasperated {{alt|Adama|TOS|Commander Adama}} as a last ditch effort to protect ''{{alt|Galactica|TOS}}'' from a [[Nebula Ambush|certain demise]]. Only two were ever modified due to {{alt|the Fleet|TOS}}'s resource scarcity. | The Colonial '''Temporal Viper'''<ref>{{bsgwiki term}}</ref> is a modified primary space superiority fighter and attack craft designed by {{alt|Zee}}, and deployed by a reluctantly exasperated {{alt|Adama|TOS|Commander Adama}} as a last ditch effort to protect ''{{alt|Galactica|TOS}}'' from a [[Nebula Ambush|certain demise]].

As with a standard {{alt|Viper|TOS}}, it is capable of both atmospheric and long-range spacial flight, capable of operation by a single-pilot, with two-forward mounted laser-torpedo guns as standard, in addition to a [[temporal weapon]]s package in the form of the [[temporal warper]]. The temporal warper has a limitation of ten shots before it requires a recharge from a special [[temporal battery]] {{comics|vol2|1}}. | As with a standard {{alt|Viper|TOS}}, it is capable of both atmospheric and long-range spacial flight, capable of operation by a single-pilot, with two-forward mounted laser-torpedo guns as standard, in addition to a [[temporal weapon]]s package in the form of the [[temporal warper]].

Aesthetically, the modified Viper is a dark gray featuring orange striping across its fuselage and wings, and the addition of a nose stabilizer fin on the fuselage {{comics|vol2|1}}. It is also capable of carrying two persons in tandem, although this is discomforting to pilots {{comics|vol2|3}} & {{comics|vol2|5|short=y}}. | Aesthetically, the modified Viper is a dark gray featuring orange striping across its fuselage and wings, and the addition of a nose stabilizer fin on the fuselage ({{comics|vol2|1}}).

The ship also features temporal shielding, thus allowing its two test pilots—{{alt|Apollo|TOS}} and {{alt|Starbuck|TOS}}—to remain unaffected when ''Galactica'' is removed from the timeline, and allowing the craft to survive a [[temporal storm]] into an [[alternate reality]] {{comics|vol2|1}} & {{comics|vol2|2|short=y}}. | The ship also features temporal shielding, thus allowing its two test pilots—{{alt|Apollo|TOS}} and {{alt|Starbuck|TOS}}—to remain unaffected when ''Galactica'' is removed from the timeline, and allowing the craft to survive a [[temporal storm]] into an [[alternate reality]] ({{comics|vol2|1}} & {{comics|vol2|2|short=y}}). | ||
