Aquarium build
The turbo charger is the crux of the Aquarium Crew’s complex design. It compresses air into a combustion chamber, where it is mixed with kerosene fuel. This mix is ignited and the resulting pressure escapes back through the turbo and into the afterburner, where more fuel is added to the hot exhaust gas, creating thrust.
