This paper addresses the dynamics model of an underwater vehicle with a water-jet propulsion system. Our aim is to develop the vehicle for the use of oceanographic survey, fisheries and ocean exploration. Hydrodynamic forces acting on the vehicle with 4 fins are determined for -90.0～90.0 degrees of attack angle and -2.0～2.0 of non-dimensional rate of turn including conventional towing tank test such as Oblique towing test and Circular motion test. In addition, in order to characterize the effects of vehicle motion on water-jet forces, experiments to measure the side force and yaw moment produced by water-jet units have been made. A water-jet model is also incorporated into the simulation. The model is used to simulate the vehicle. The authors use the simulation as a predictive design tool to evaluate and compare the performance of the vehicle before it has been fully developed.
