From underwater fighter jets to this underwater race car. I noticed that there is no photo showing ingress/egress on the surface. Personal submarines, in my humble opinion, really should have sufficient freeboard (often a conning tower) to allow the pilot to operate the vessel solo (without a launch crew and/or crane). Maybe this one does, the Super Falcon does not.</SPAN><SPAN style="color: black; font-family: "Helvetica",sans-serif;"></SPAN><DIV></DIV></P><P style="background: white;"><SPAN style="color: black; font-family: "Helvetica",sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">But is sure looks good enough to get the male youth off the jetski and into a submarine.
