For the underwater scenes they had a model which looked damn real. For the above water scenes, the Navy actually participated. I read a while back they did 50 emergency blows with a couple of the subs and even some of the main characters went underwater in the sub.

But the underwater model sub looked 10x better than that new POS ABC sub TV show.
