The Battlestar Pacifica is a space-going leviathan of more than 4700 feet (1400 meters) in length; housing at least 4 squadrons of 20 Viper space superiority fighters apiece though its wing composition is dictated by mission profile. The fully-armed battlestar is capable of a wide range of offensive actions, while her defensive armaments ensure she is fully capable of both protecting herself from attack and engaging an enemy at close quarters.
