BSG Viper Mk II Side View Technical Callouts

Description

Back in I think 2005 or 2006 I did a technical callout of the Viper Mk II and posted it on some Galactica fan sites. When I did this I found that my original creations were pirated and placed on various websites. Now in 2014, I thought it was time to go back and redo the original version, because looking at them now they really left something to be desired. So now is the completely new version of the Viper Mk II with outboard technical call-outs.

Originally I had the inspiration to do this when I watched an episode of BSG where Kara "Starbuck" Thrace was training new "nuggets" and she had posters of the Mk II with technical call-outs. I thought that those posters were really lacking in detail so I did my own versions of them.

99% of the call-outs are completely conjectural based upon my knowledge of USAF fighters, but it seemed to make sense.

Up next will be the re-do's of the ventral, dorsal, fore and aft.

EDIT: 06/07/2014 I HAVE CHANGED SOME OF THE NUMBERED CALLOUTS TO MAKE THEM SOUND MORE TECHNICAL. I WILL UPDATE THE OTHER VIEWS SHORTLY.

Very awesome work, nice to see what all this stuff is, even if it's not accurate to the show, then again they never explained anything so I consider it canon until something official comes along. :D
