 The Q Force Swordfish was a large boat that could fit many figures. Despite being a large vehicle it did not come with a figure.

It had a torpedo launcher and a missile launcher. 

The Q Force Swordfish was a large boat but did not come with a figure. There was lots of space for Action Force figures and some pegs were also on the deck for them to stand on. 

It had two moulded guns at the front. It came with a torpedo launcher and a missile launcher. The small grey part that hold the torpedo is very fragile and often missing or broken. The missile launcher held one large missile and two smaller ones. The missile launcher part (part that holds missiles) came in grey and black for this toy.

The Swordfish also came with either a blue or yellow floatation device. Palitoy seem to use any available overstock! The yellow flotation part came with the first series AF5 Multi Mission vehicle and AF7 Deep Sea Diver vehicle.

The Sonar Officer Phones is associated with the ship and its radar as communications is his speciality. 

It came with a number of parts including a radar dish, two large missiles/ torpedoes, two small yellow missiles a small grey part that held the torpedo, a black part that was the missile launcher and a small plug that went in the large blue base. 

The Swordfish appeared in this television commercial.
