Does what it says on the tin.
• Group 1 activates missile tube doors. Move VTOL slider down to open.
• Groups 2 and 3 launch aft and forward missiles, respectively.
• Group 4 activates dive planes, control dive with VTOL slider up.
Missiles can only be successfully launched if you are underway at around 60% throttle or higher. (Can also be launched at full throttle.)
Notes:
• With the dive planes properly tilted, it will cruise at periscope depth (-19ft) with minimal pitch input.
• Diving with the missile tube doors open is not recommended.
• As you use fuel you become more buoyant, eventually counteracting the dive plane thrusters and eliminating diving capabilities.
• To level out the boat while preparing to fire missiles, try locking the dive planes in the full downward position.

I made cocpit in telescope version, go check it out:http://www.simpleplanes.com/a/Uioz7i/Missile-sub-with-cocpit-in-telescope
Very nice! I too am working on a submersible, and this has things to consider :).
Awesome. Could use a couple of orbit cameras on the missiles.
