Description (Specifications)[edit]

The hunterfoils is three meters long, 2 meters wide, and 2 meters tall. It can function as a hydrofoil or submersible and has an endurance of about eight hours of continuous use, powered by a small fusion generator.

On the surface, a hunterfoil may move at up to 150kph; underwater, maximum speed is 30kph. A hunterfoil may not submerge unless its speed is 30kph or less.

The hunterfoil mounts two fixed, forward-firing missile tubes, capable of independent or simultaneous fire. It carries four missles. The Hunterfoil also mounts a laser turret for defense.
