| Additional Information | |||
A flattop is a type of salvage and repair ship in the Fleet, acting as a mobile spacedock. A Flattop-type ship is among the first vessels to join the Fleet (TRS: "Miniseries"). Later a flattop-type is among the ships with 'Galactica' when New Caprica falls (TRS: "Precipice").
There are at least four flattop-type ships in the Fleet, including the Carina (lost during the passage through a star cluster) and the Virgon Express (noted for flying "upside down" whilst in flight).
Notes
- "Flat top" is a slang term for an aircraft carrier (it is also a hairstyle).
- In the separate continuity of the Dynamite comics series, ships of the same design were used by the Caprican Expeditionary Fleet during the Third Colonial Conflict.
- The Flattop design in the Re-imagined Series is based on an Original Series ship design.
