Some times when I start building a vehicle a get a whole new idea. This was going to be a new version of the Air Skiff with an open cab. Then I remembered I had a front of a Sky Hawk I scraped from another project. I need a way for it to open so I put a hinge at the front so it opens forward. I then decided to play up the Shark look and go with that as a theme.
The idea is the Edestus can fool the Joes Sonar as it gives the same water displacement signature as a large fish. It features two side mounted underwater cannons and six mini torpedoes. It also has rotating water jets that give it excellent maneuverability as well as one main propeller. Image

Originally I had fan engines up top but I thought they looked like ears. Image

Edestus is a prehistoric Shark. I thought Megladon or Great White was to obvious. I looked at some pictures and kind of painted like one. Added white to the front and the black on the fins.
