I'm not sure who recently asked about what a hydrofoil looks like, but this is always what comes to mind for me!

These used to zoom up and down Sydney Harbour every day as part of the ferry fleet, taking commuters back and forth from Circular Quay to Manly. They cut the travel time in half compared to regular ferry services - covering the 10km journey in 15 minutes.

Project 80, an amphibious hydrofoil flotation system for the Soviet T-55 tank. Water speed was 58 km/h, land speed was 25 km/h. The system took an hour to assemble and 3 minutes to remove.
