Classic Raiden series: The Raiden mk-II's debut was in Raiden II. The Raiden mk-II's counterpart ship is the Raiden mk-IIβ, which both start out with the Vulcan firepower.

Raiden revival: The Raiden mk-II returns in the PS2 revival of the Raiden series, Raiden III, when it was last seen in Raiden DX, the same firepower, but a little more detailed than it's retro depictions.

Raiden Fighters series: In Raiden Fighters and it's sequels, the Raiden mk-II makes a cameo appearance as a playable ship (in some versions, you have to unlock, while others, you simply play as from the start of the game without cheats). But unlike the main Raiden series, the Raiden mk-II's power set is the Purple Pulse firepower, then upgrades to the full version of the Plasma lock-on firepower.

Raiden X: Presumably the same as Raiden II, but the differences are that every time it obtains a different firepower, it changes colors.

DemonStar: The Raiden mk-II, along with the Raiden mk-IIβ, makes cameo appearances in DemonStar as playable ships and reprise their description from Raiden II, with very few changes.

TriviaEdit

• The Raiden mk-II first appeared in Raiden II, respectively. But in Raiden, there is a ship that looks somewhat strikingly similar to the Raiden mk-II. This is possibly, the predecessor of the Raiden mk-II, which is known as the Raiden Supersonic Attack Fighter.
