    Then again, only applicable to models with jet engines as in Sci-Fi ships or rockets. Would work nicely for something like a Space Shuttle etc but less so for actual submarine models.

    I'll have to seriously consider this for my next boat with a shroud...
    Well, I'm sure you'll keep us posted if you go that route. Sounds intriguing.

    While not to scale, great maneuverability is a good thing to have particularly in small swimming pools.

    A Seehund that could turn on a dime? Wowse!
