A Viper Mk II and Viper Mk VII in close formation.

From the Miniseries through the episode "Pegasus", Galactica's Viper complement was ever dwindling. With the return of Pegasus, the fleet gained the ability to produce new Vipers. This list was created to keep track of Galactica and Pegasus's Viper complement and includes those active and destroyed, as well as ones with unknown status.

Note that DRADIS designations and tail number designations differ, even if they denote the same Viper, and a DRADIS designation number may have been used on multiple Vipers. DRADIS designations are noted as "DRADIS" in parentheses next to the numeric designation.
