Скачать или смотреть What Happened to German U-Boats After WW2? The Secret Fate of Hitlers Submarine Fleet

When Nazi Germany surrendered in May 1945, the Battle of the Atlantic finally came to an end. But what happened to the hundreds of U-boats that were still at sea? This documentary explores the unprecedented fate of the Kriegsmarine submarine fleet after World War II. Discover the history of Operation Deadlight, the massive Royal Navy mission to scuttle over a hundred captured submarines in the Atlantic Ocean.

We reveal how the Allies raced to capture advanced German technology, specifically the revolutionary Type XXI and Type XXIII submarines, which would shape the future of the Cold War. From the scuttling grounds off the coast of Ireland to the museum ships like U-995 and U-505 that survive today, this is the complete story of the destruction and legacy of the German U-boat force.

Join us as we dive into the archives to uncover how these steel sharks went from terrifying weapons of war to rusting wrecks on the ocean floor.
