Default New super-planes can fly underwater

Yes, they can fly in the air and underwater, they are extremly dangerous !

The next model will be able to fly in orbit, too.

Of course, they are driven by nuclear fusion reactors !

Yeah, yeah. Supercar is sixties technology. The real
advance would be in making the marionettes' strings
invisible.

ROTFL. Man, you jogged some 40 year-old memories. I was more of a Fireball
XL-5 fan (I wonder how much my working plastic model Fireball XL-5 would be
worth now, if I still had it?), but I've been unable to get the Supercar opening
out of my head for the last 20 minutes or so.

There was some protoype USAF delta-wing jet in the early 50s that landed
on waterskid and then acted as a submarine down to 15 meters of water.

See: Convair XF2Y Sea Dart

Partly right, any Sea Dart submersions were unintentional and
going down 15 metres was a one shot trick

If it submerged to 15 meters, I think that was most likely an accident.
