The Raptor is designed to play multiple roles, ranging from reconnaissance and scouting, to supporting missions with electronic countermeasures and deploying additional firepower. It is slower and less maneuverable than a Viper, but it is capable of short-range FTL jumps and can be armed to fight back Cylons.

The Raptor can be equipped with additional internal and external armaments on the fuselage and wings, such as autocannon and missile pods, for defensive and offensive operations where combat is to be expected.
