Stealthstar 7746VA was a designation used for a Colonial stealth craft.
Lieutenant Daniel "Bulldog" Novacek, from the battlestar Valkyrie, piloted this craft across the Armistice Line in order to determine whether or not the Cylons were performing a military buildup.
During the mission, the Stealthstar had open comm channels, and was actively monitoring DRADIS, perhaps in an attempt to lure the Cylons with the intent of going silent at the first sign of trouble. Its position was clearly visible to Valkyrie's DRADIS. However, the Stealthstar was interdicted by a craft of unknown designation (presumably Cylon) which quickly jumped in and out. In an attempt to conceal the mission, Valkyrie's CO, Commander William Adama, attempted to destroy the craft before the Cylons found it. This resulted in severe damage before its stealth functions were fully utilized (TRS: "Hero").
Notes
- The Stealthstar utilized the Viper Mark VII cockpit.
- On Valkyrie's DRADIS, the ship was designated as "S-Star".
- The Stealthstar is a redress of the Blackbird. [1]
