Dive in. The water's nice. Not far beneath the surface you'll find this astounding beauty; A massive Feign Orca. From the sleek and majestic machinery of this awesome beast emanates an aura of unbridled power. Swimming closer, you sense a glimmer of beckoning in its eyes; an inviting smile of sorts. The hair on the back of your neck stands up because you're underwater. A feeling of warmth surrounds you. Clearly you both have skyward thoughts in mind.

Perched with heart-pounding anticipation at the apex of the poised giant, you give the signal... A whale of a hydraulic piston sends you and ol' rubber blubber careening towards the surface... and beyond.

       Sure po, any aquatic critter would be fine. It’s all about the dive really. Having tried many interesting ways of falling into water, I thought it would be fun to get launched out of the water. It’s not likely I’ll ever be in the water with a real trained Orca, and that’s the only thing I could think of that launches this way. Oh, and those cute little SLBM’s. Hey [UB], those would work for you.
