The Starhound class is based off the jet fighter seen on the Caprica TV series as part of a flight sim, known as the Caprica "viper" in the BSG fandom. The name Starhound is a nod to the ToS:BSG. Designed and built by a Boskonian BSG:Caprica fen for use as a main stay boskonian fighter. However the Boskonian could never build enough to offset the numbers of Zigs built by the fen. The Colonies currently have a bounty on the designer's head, who is still at large. The very existence of the fighter drives most Colonials nuts, mainly because it was built by the enemy.
The Starhound looks like someone took the basic design theory of a Viper Mark II and built a twin engine jet fighter with parts from a F-4, F-18 and the nose from a ME-109.
All standard caprica vipers in boskonian service are painted in a off white with black trim.

== Class Quirks ==
Old school Cylon: To start the fighter the pilot must shout the phrase "By your command!"
Emergency Jacket: The class preforms best if a battered leather flight jacket is kept within the craft, most put it in the pilot's emergency kit.
== Known Fighters ==
Captured Fighters
Doghouse: Stolen, believed to be the first of the class.
One Wing Angel: Defected, one wing painted to look like a white feathered wing with a golden 'halo' around the nose cone. Rest of the fighter painted a flat black.
Pure of Heart: Captured, Gold with white trim, piloted by a Senshi. Fighter along with two other's captured from a minor boskonian base while still packaged from shipment. Employed as a Op-force for training Senshi pilots.

Boskonian Fighters
Redwing: A pure white fighter with one red wing piloted by a unknown Boskonian ace. Shot down during the Serenity Valley battle by the pilot of the Doghouse.
Blackwing: Redwing's wingman and fell Boskonian Ace. Pure white fighter with the opposite wing from red's painted black. Believed shot down by One Wing Angel during the battle over Boskonian One.
Lawn Dart: Infamous among boskonian pilots for the number of times it's been forced to make belly landings. Nose cone jokingly painted to look like a giant grass stain while the rest of the fighter retains the boskonian off-white color. Truely lived up to it's name during the battle of Serenity Valley, it's remains have been left where it crashed.
The Last Token: Minor Boskonian Ace, standard colors with tumbling gold game token decals - Fate unknown
