Nope, saw that capability demonstrated at San Diego. Front and rear splash plates go down, hydrojets crank up, and the thing starts planing at a pretty good clip.

Okay... NOW it doesn’t look anything like a DUKW!

WOW! Impressive! That giant sucking sound you hear isn’t hydrojets - it’s the fuel pumps. Still amazing though.

Planing? That might be a bit of a stretch. ;-)
