'''Overview'''
It carries two crew, a pilot and a gunner, although just like the ordinary Death Glider, it can operate with just a pilot. While the normal Death Glider has two anhedral or down-pointing wings, this craft has one curved into a cylinder around the central hull and the tied by horizontal airfoils tying the first to the fuselage. The craft has two energy weapons, similar to Staff cannons, which has a range of 70 meters. (SG1: "Into the Fire", "The DVD Collection 15")
The ship is powered by a Naquadah reactor, is fueled by Naquadah and has a hull made out of Trinium. The ships length is 4 meters and its width and height is 6.5 meters. (SG1: "The DVD Collection 15")
'''History'''
This ship was used when SG-1 was being held by Hathor's forces. It was hidden away by Bra'tac around one hundred years previously. It was used to attack the Stargate on Eskal, and ultimately led to Stargate Command gaining control of the gate. Since this time, it is unknown what has happened to the Death Glider. (SG1: "Into the Fire")
