The U-16 is based on a submarine operated by the German Federal Navy.
The sub features a real static diving system utilising a vertical movement motor which controls a flood tank. As the tank floods, the boat starts to sink under its own weight; it surfaces using the same method. The result is that the model can "hover" (remain stationary) in the water.
Excellent manoeuvrability is obtained by the stern thruster combined with the relatively short hull - the model is shorter than scale.
The drive battery can be charged quickly and easily, as the switch socket doubles as the charge socket. The two red searchlights glow when the boat is running, making the model look truly realistic. As the submarine is so small, it can easily be operated in the bathtub or an aquarium.
