Description: Little is known about the basestar ships of the Cylon fleet. They are approximately the same size as Colonial battlestars but they appear to be far more advanced.

Basestars have two elongated Y-shaped sections, stacked in opposition, giving them a unique and unmistakable appearance. They are FTL-capable but display no visible means of sublight propulsion. Even so, they are capable of obtaining top sublight speeds, and are fast enough to chase down a battlestar.

Offensive capability appears to be based on missile delivery systems. While only a few are fired at one time, they seem to have a nearly unlimited supply, including a large stockpile of nuclear warheads. No basestar encountered thus far has featured autocannons. They appear to rely on hundreds of raider fighter craft as both an attack force and point defense system.

The Fleet has been able to destroy one basestar by infiltrating a Raptor modified with a Cylon transponder and armed with a nuclear warhead. Upon retrieval, the insertion team reported that the basestar seemed to be completely bio-mechanical. The interior was a vast organic space.
