They ruled the Atlantic—until they became the hunted.
In 1943, German U-boat commanders faced a terrifying enemy they couldn’t see, outrun, or escape.
In this video, we uncover the dramatic turning point of the Battle of the Atlantic, when the U.S. Navy’s Hunter-Killer groups shattered the myth of the invincible Nazi U-boats. Using small escort carriers, secret intelligence, and revolutionary technology, the Allies transformed the ocean into a deadly trap for the once-feared wolfpacks.
You’ll discover how American escort carriers (“jeep carriers”), cracked Enigma codes, advanced radar, Huff-Duff radio tracking, and the terrifying acoustic homing torpedo turned the tide of World War II naval warfare. From the chaos of Black May 1943 to desperate surface battles and the daring capture of U-505, this story shows how the hunters became the hunted—and why U-boat crews were pushed to the brink of fear and exhaustion.
