CORA's visual display panel.

CORA stands for Computer, Oral Response Activated. CORA is an advanced flight computer installed in Recon Viper One, designed to not only assist the pilot in flying during long patrols but also keep him entertained. CORA's voice is distinctly feminine, and it exhibits a flirtatious demeanor when interacting with Starbuck. Despite the apparent advanced intelligence of the unit, it failed to prevent Robber from stealing the Recon Viper, even assisting him by flying as he directed. Capable of maneuvering the Viper extremely competently and precisely, Starbuck had CORA perform a maximum-G climb that caused a Cylon Raider to crash into Proteus (The Long Patrol).
