The Persian Gulf has been the stage for some of the biggest naval deployments in recent history, and since 1987, the U.S. military and its warships have been in the middle of the action, facing missiles, mines, and terrorist attacks. In this episode, we follow some of the major operations that have taken place in this small body of water—from Earnest Will to Praying Mantis to Desert Storm—and examine the combat vessels from both sides, including the Mark III Patrol Boat, the IRIS Sabalan with the USS Samuel B. Roberts, the USS Missouri on its final mission, and USS Cole hit by a suicide bomber.

The Battle of Trafalgar pit the British Royal Navy against the combined fleets of the French and Spanish Navies in October 1805 in the Atlantic Ocean. The naval engagement lasted only five hours but established the Royal Navy's supremacy for over a century. The deadly conflict featured legendary leaders Napoleon Bonaparte and Horatio Nelson along with the greatest warships of their era: the HMS Victory and the Santísima Trinidad. We present a blow-by-blow account of the conflict, from the innovative tactics to the events that unfolded when the guns began firing to the tragic climax that cemented Admiral Nelson's legacy.
Over the centuries, many battles at sea were decided by breakthrough ships, "game changers" that turned the tide of war and made maritime history. This episode looks at these revolutionary vessels, from the War of 1812 hero, the USS Constitution, to the small and speedy CMB-4 to the mass-produced Liberty cargo ships. We also celebrate the groundbreaking designers and engineers behind the game changers, including Raye Montague, who smashed gender and racial barriers and revolutionized how U.S. Navy designs ships.
In times of conflict, controlling the sea often means controlling the war. We tell the stories of some of history's most remarkable combat ships as well as the men and women who sailed them into battle. From Viking longships to missile-carrying destroyers and from stealth, covert conflicts to the greatest sea conflict of all, the Battle of Leyte Gulf in 1944, we reveal the secrets of these extraordinary vessels and the remarkable maritime missions they carried out through rarely seen combat footage and firsthand veteran accounts.
