Yeah I did notice the noise problem and have fixed that. I'm using the hydrogen peroxide engine that ETR3(SS) used in his 688i. I know the beta's engine is 1500rpm I believe so it was very noisy. In the final version the electric engines will have 200rpm and the peroxide engine will have 500. That should help with the noise problem.
The interceptor has a 65cm hull so she does have some armor to take on a couple of destroyers if need be. The blackwolf has an 80cm hull just for comparison.

I believe ETR3(SS) sums it up pretty well.

Ok so here's some updates. The command room is nearly done

I'm just putting in a few small things to take up some of the bare wall space. Then all I need to do is finish some of the textures and I can bring it in game. She will have click-able buttons for most of the commands the game has.
I have also looked into adding the venting of air from the sub when submerging. I'm still working on it but this is what I have so far.

This vid here shows kind of what I'm going for. You need to skip to about 48 sec in. I know i'll never get it to look exactly like the vid but I want to get as close as I can.
