During the Battle of the Binary Star System Yellow Squadron is the wireless callsign of a Viper squadron sortied by Pegasus. It is shown on the DRADIS screen participating in the battle. Together with Blue Squadron it is presumably led by Kara "Starbuck" Thrace ^{(TRS: "The Captain's Hand")}.

Yellow Squadron also appears on Galactica's DRADIS during the Battle of the Ionian Nebula ^{(TRS: "He That Believeth in Me")}.

Similar terms

• In a "A Day in the Life", Lee Adama orders his pilots to do flying and landing exercises, dividing them into red, blue, yellow and green "sections".

Notes

• Originally it seemed that Yellow Squadron could be a standing squadron on Pegasus (similar to the naming scheme of the Original Series). However, later the terms Red and Blue Squadron are used for widely different units, which are led by different people. This suggests that it is merely a callsign to identify the squadrons on the wireless and DRADIS.

Additional Information

The Yellow-hulled Vessel was a transport ship in the Twelve Colonies.

At least three such vessels survived the initial attacks, but one was left behind to be destroyed by the Cylons. The two FTL-capable ones are part of the Fleet ^{(TRS: "Act of Contrition", "Six Degrees of Separation" and "Flesh and Bone")}.

One of the vessels was also seen orbiting Cloud 9 when Gina Inviere's nuclear bomb destroyed the luxury liner and three surrounding vessels, including the vessel itself; the explosive force having pushed out from Cloud 9 and striking a Colonial Movers ship, and then striking both the Yellow Vessel and a Long-Necked Vessel. Both were destroyed instantly ^{(TRS: "Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II")}.

The second survives beyond the exodus from New Caprica ^{(TRS: "The Son Also Rises")} and the Battle of the Ionian Nebula. It is later flown into Sol following the discovery of second Earth ^{(TRS: "Daybreak, Part II")}.

Behind the Scenes

• The ship resembles the Kodiak from the game Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun.
• Until "Daybreak, Part II," the ship was seen only in the background, and can be seen up-close prior to Galactica's departure from the Fleet, en route to rescue Hera Agathon from John Cavil.
• It was suspected that the ship design had been lost following the destruction of Cloud 9, but the ship made a reappearance in "The Son Also Rises" when Brendan "Hot Dog" Costanza checks in with Galactica's LSO two weeks after Kara "Starbuck" Thrace's death.
