1. A robotic fish comprising a wing and a plurality of torque reaction engines (“TREs”) secured to the wing, wherein the plurality of TREs cause the wing to translate or rotate through and accelerate a surrounding thrust fluid, wherein the wing comprises a disk and the plurality of TREs form a matrix of TREs in the disk.
