Additional Information

The Viper Mark III is a fighter craft used by the Colonial Fleet in the latter part of the Cylon War. It is the successor of the Viper Mark II and the precursor to those craft used by the Fleet following the war, including the Viper Mark VII (Blood and Chrome).

During the tenth year of the Cylon War, the battlestar Galactica carries a full complement of Viper Mark IIIs (Blood and Chrome).

Colonial Academy recruits practice combat skills in holoband simulations of the Viper Mark III (Blood and Chrome).

Notes[edit]

  • The Viper Mark III appears to be an incremental update on the Mark II design. External differences include:
    • a more angular forward fuselage cross section
    • a revised cockpit canopy featuring rounder edges
    • more angular side intakes with intake ramps
    • narrower thrust nozzles
    • what may be two ordnance bays on the fuselage underside
  • The Viper Mark III's control stick appears to be a Logitech Wingman
