Uniforms (1980)

Part of the series on Uniforms

Original Series Galactica 1980 Re-imagined Series

The uniforms worn in Galactica 1980 are, for the most part, the same uniforms used in the Original Series from which it had sprung.

There are a few notable differences, however.

Boomer's Uniform

Colonel Boomer wears two different uniforms in the series, the Warrior and blue officer type.

The unique feature of both uniforms, starting from "The Super Scouts, Part I", is the presence of an emblem pinned to the neck piece, which is silver.

Environmental Spacesuit

Apparently a part of every Viper are two sets of space suits which permit the occupants to exit the ship while in space. While much the same as the suits seen in the Original Series episode "Fire in Space", the major difference is the helmet, which is a helmet with a black visor and the hawk-like emblem on the forehead.

Pilot Uniforms

D Squadron

Members of D Squadron appear to have either variants of the beige tunic and brown jacket uniforms, or completely different ones. In one instance, an unnamed dark-skinned pilot appears to have a metallic chest plate, with a dark jacket underneath. Another pilot wears a black leather jacket, and, yet another pilot, wears a neckerchief at the neck with a silver emblem with the standard Warrior outfit and jacket attached to said neckerchief ^{(1980: "Space Croppers")}.

Helmets

A new Viper pilot helmet makes its sole appearance in "Space Croppers," with two distinct color schemes. Smaller than its predecessor, it features a tighter and angular jawline thus fitting closely to the wearer's jaw, and a noticeable chin-guard with angled microphone grill. A leather strap wraps under the jaw to keep the helmet in place, a feature absent from the prior helmets.

The primary base color has two variations: the beige-ochre version worn by Troy and Dillon, mirroring the coloration of the previous helmet, and a dark bronze version worn by D Squadron.

Accessories

As part of the uniforms of Galacticans, they carry a wrist computron which aids them in various ways while on their mission to Earth. Not only is this standard equipment for Warriors, but also for the Super Scouts ^{(1980: "The Super Scouts", "Spaceball")} and agricultural workers ^{(1980: "Space Croppers")} settling on Earth.
