'''Viper 8547''' is a [[Viper Mark II|Viper Mk. II]] spacefighter formerly flown by [[Raymond Lai|Raymond "Raygun" Lai]]. It had been refurbished to flight condition as part of a museum on the soon-to-be-retired [[Galactica type battlestar|battlestar]] ''[[Galactica]]'' and was part of a squadron of old Viper Mark IIs on display in the museum's exhibit area in the newly refitted pressurized starboard [[flight pod]].<br />
<br />
Raygun's Viper was not to remain a museum piece however. When a new [[Cylons (RDM)|Cylon]] menace destroys ''[[Galactica]]'s'' last Mark VII squadron en route to Caprica after the battlestar's decommissioning ceremonies, and with the battlestar itself without munitions, Commander [[William Adama]] orders these old fighters returned to flight status to protect the battlestar.<br />
<br />
Lt. [[Kara Thrace|Kara "Starbuck" Thrace]] inherits the craft after the bulk of ''Galactica's'' more advanced Mk. VII Vipers were destroyed in the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]] ([[Miniseries]]).<br />
