@dubstep thanks
The torpedoes are nice
@Sandrik1 thanks !
Very cool submarine and I really dig that the torpedos work too!
@DeltaCaptain thanks you
Boat itself was pretty cool, torpedos are amazing, experimenting with dropping them from planes. Really nice build!
Ikr? It's going to be awesome!@Zandgard

Great work!
Prepare for the wall of text.
Very nice details on this boat. You chose a pretty unique design, and gave a good amount of attention to details. I also like the torpedoes. I managed to sink USS Tiny on my first attempt. That's the plus side.
Now for the critics.
Handling is pretty bad. You did good using VTOL for propulsion, but you did it the wrong way. You have VTOL nozzles everywhere. One is enough, if placed right. It should be as far back as possible, and as low as possible, to give the boat a tilt towards the inside of the curve when it's turning. Prevent it from flipping by putting small blocks with edited buoyancy near the waterline on both sides. To aid the tilting, you can hide XML-edited jet engines in the tallest part of the ship (Example, in the radar tower, check their xml stats). Also, look inside the hull of that one to find another system that helps with the proper handling.
Aesthetics are good overall, but there are a few flaws. Front gun is clipping through the antenna pole, the VTOL engine is sticking out, and you didn't disable flames on VTOL nozzles.
One more thing. FOR CRYING OUT LOUD, USE PROPELLERS THAT ACTUALLY WORK UNDER WATER. i'M TALKING ABOUT THEM FOR TEN MONTHS NOW, SOMEBODY COULD USE THEM ALREADY! You can find them on most of my ships. Not on the latest three tho. If you want to make them yourself, just make the propeller blades very thick (like on the real ship prop). Cord scale between 12 and 17 should do. Thicker the blades, deeper it can work.
Now, for a final word. Please, don't take this wall of text in a negative manner. I am impressed with the way your ships look, and I want to help you make them more pleasant to use. If you need further explanations of the things I mentioned above, or a direct example, I'll be there to provide.
Cool!!!
It has i read it
Does this have an torpedo??!
@Zandgard I did some experimenting with sort of torpedoes a while back. This was the result:
