Flying fish

I had an idea for a sub that can briefly fly out of water like a flying fish evades predators. Then obviously within an area that would require this sub would need an equally fearsome predator by gliding for a short duration. Perhaps around the island or around a previously unknown or damaged vessel that is capturable. This idea could work with infested waters, areas of high concentrations of nasty fish shoals around sandy shallow flats.

It could be an upgrade module for the seamoth;
It would give a short speed boost when activated and if launched out of the water increases that boost while reducing fall rate. (glide wings)
It would have a hefty energy cost and you would not be able to turn but with practice it could be a fast, efficient and fast way to travel long distance.
Good luck near islands though
