Background

The Cerastes was one of four additonal ships introduced in the first downloadable content pack titled "Reinforcement Pack".

A small and agile gunship, created as a response to the rapid escalation of Colonial Viper design.

The Cerastes is fitted with point defence turrets similar to the those found on the flight pods of Battlestars, and specializes in softening hostile fighter squadrons.
