Description
Reboot of the new Battlestar Galactica Viper

8 front mounted MGs
1 nose turret small caliber
1 chin turret heavy caliber
6 heavy missiles (type "basestar cracker")
14 swarm AA rockets
2 side turrets medium caliber

"Hm, I can't get comfortable with the idea of the Vipers being designed for more speed and maneuverability than the raiders.
G-Forces also apply to space and a human can only take so much, modern day fighter jets are on the edge of human capability, more could possibly kill the pilot.
I'd go the other way round, cylons are mass produced small fighting vehicles which don't have to care about G-Forces because they are "robots".

My Vipers would be bigger, more like today's Havok choppers.
They'd be two-seaters with a fearsome weaponry and turrets to be capable of fighting overwhelming masses. They should be able to soak up some fire before getting into trouble."
