The '''Cylon freighter''' (or '''Cylon tanker''') is an unarmed ship used throughout the [[Cylons (TOS)|Cylon]] sphere of influence to transport [[tylium|fuel]] and other goods. Cylon fuel tankers may be used to support an offensive operation, as demonstrated at the [[Battle of Cimtar]]. Cylon fuel tankers allow the fighters to deploy far in excess of the ranges they are normally capable of without [[Basestar (TOS)|basestar]] support. This frees the basestars to attack [[The Twelve Colonies (TOS)|the colonies]] while the fighters disposed of the [[Battlestar (TOS)|battlestars]] at [[Cimtar]] ([[Saga of a Star World]]).<br />
<br />
[[Viper (TOS)|Vipers]] from both [[Galactica (TOS)|''Galactica'']] and [[Pegasus (TOS)|''Pegagus'']] launch a mission in an attempt to capture Cylon freighters in order to resupply the fleet. The plan is foiled when [[Cain (TOS)|Commander Cain]] intentionally destroys the freighters in order to force [[Adama (TOS)|Adama]] into a position where he needed to attack [[Gamoray]] ([[The Living Legend, Part I]]).<br />
