The German submarine threat was one of the most dramatic conflicts of World War II. The Nazi U-Boat force, known as the "Wolf Pack" almost turned the tide of the war as it threatened to completely shut off the Atlantic supply lines. This award winning film tells the fascinating and frightening story of the Nazi submarine attack force that sank hundreds of ships and invaded U.S. waters.

Rare footage of U-Boat construction, the claustrophobic life on board, and actual attacks on Allied shipping, highlight this powerful and memorable film. Detailed interviews with a former U.S. Coast Guards Captain, and a former German U-Boat Captain provided an insight into counterpoint on the Atlantic "war of nerves2. German military footage of U-Boats within New York Harbor and Chesapeake Bay further emphasizes the frightening reality of this unseen, underwater foe that nearly changed the course of history.

War at sea is a complex business with three main area's of defence and attack. Surface, under sea and air. In this action packed video, we see today's Naval Forces managing this balance of carriers for air defence, battleships for fire power and cruisers and frigates for hunting submarines.

By the end of World War II, the battleship was making way for the aircraft carrier, but today they have made a remarkable comeback to meet the demand for platforms from which to launch cruise missiles.

Congress has funded the conversion of many of America's best known old battleships including Iowa, New Jersey and Wisconsin. Many of the advanced techniques used in sea combat are demonstrated in this exciting film.
