Model This model consists of a three piece torpedo that houses a 16 g CO2 cartridge and ballast holder. The launcher is built with a few bits of hardware and is used to puncture the CO2 canister and launch the torpedo underwater. The torpedo won't harm anyone, but be cautious around the launcher (sharp object) and CO2 gas (high pressure and cold).

Update: I've also added alternative top and lower sections by request that are extended so that the torpedoes will float rather than sink (untested).

Check out the Build Video for assembly instructions and to see how they perform.
