the borei has retractable forward planes just as the akula class, that do not fold back into the hull as do older subs, but slida paralelly to their shaft into the hull in a recess - or housing. the opening is then covered by a pair of hatches, that lower down from above the recess or raise from below. the forward planes are usually retracted on surface cruise or when going high speed submerged, they are only necessary for slow submerged manouvering. all the moving parts ingame have to be seperate objects that need to be aligned on the axis they will move on later, eg you ned to center the aft diving planes to the x-axis and the rudder to z. i would recommend you open one of my yanke- or delta class ssbn mods (the .dat-file) in silent3ditor and examine how things need to work together.you don not make animations in your modelling program, those are done in s3d.
