I've never paid attention to Sub Week before. Do they just have modern stuff or do they showcase WWI & II subs, too? I'm not real interested in modern subs anymore.

Here's the schedule:

05-Mar

TOP TEN SUBMARINES**
Whether patiently stalking their prey in two World Wars or carrying devastating nuclear missiles as a deterrent in the Cold War, these hunters of the deep have played an often unseen but crucial role in the conflicts of the 20th century. Based on scientific analyses, expert opinion, audience polls and technical comparison, we construct a five-point matrix to rank the TOP TEN SUBMARINES of all time.

06-Mar

SIZE IT UP: SUBS
SIZE IT UP is an exciting, behind-the-scenes look inside extreme military technology, combining heart-pounding action with high-tech wizardry to tell the story of the U.S. Military’s most amazing mechanical marvels. This episode features submarines - from the tiny yet stealthy REMUS, to the mighty and powerful SEAL delivery vehicle.

07-Mar

WEAPONS RACES: The Race for the Nuclear Submarine
This program looks at the way in which both the technology and the tactics of submarine warfare were adapted and developed during the Cold War, and how boats like the USS Virginia and the Russian Akula are today's most powerful and deadly naval units.

08-Mar

EXTREME MACHINES – Nuclear Submarine
The modern sub is both nuclear powered and nuclear armed. The largest, "Boomers," lurk for six months at a time in remote corners of the ocean, rarely detected. America's mighty fleet of subs is the single most important component of national defense, maintaining an incredible strategic and nuclear deterrent across the entire planet.
