The boat can also fire 2 torpedoes. Each is around 8 inches long and powered by something simular to Propel, actually Super Duster canned air. You add the liguid into the top shraeder valve"valve stem". You can adjust the distance and speed by changing the diameter of the rear of the torpedo. As is, these suckers haul. This is a pic of a unpainted one with the top section off.
