Squid use a kind of jet power. Water is squirted at great pressure out of a nozzle on the squid's body. At times the squid can swim so fast that it may pop out of the water and glide through the air at 25 to 40 miles per hour. A squid may fly for 100 feet or more before it splashes back into the water.

∙ 14y agoThe squid's primary method of locomotion is the use of its siphon to create jet propulsion. It can travel at relatively high speeds for escape or hunting, using its arms (but not the tentacles) to help steer.
The tentacles are used to help it find and gather food, and as sensory organs.
