Do Google "British K class submarine" for information about a class of WW I submarines powered by steam turbines. They belong in this list.

The first Soviet nuclear sub wasn't K-19 (it was third). First was K-3, and it lived mostly uneventful life. Also, there's only one Oscar-class sub. The one near the beach is Typhoon/Akula-class, AKA Project 941 -- the biggest subs ever built.

"As the Cold war progressed they were getting bigger and deadlier", these 2 Russian submarines are the O.S.C.A.R class, built in Sevmash Shipyards, about 50 miles away from Arcangel.

The Kursk was an O.S.C.A.R class sub.

the "Nazi Sub" (subs don't extend their right arm;)) is not a submarine...
It is the rarely known VS-5, an experimental prototype of a mostly-submerged vessel. It could not dive, but was to test an experimental hydrodynamic hull shape.
Possible applications would have been as a motor torpedo boat, but the german navy wasn't even interested in the prototype.

Nice collection of submarines. But I myself would never go into a submarine. I'm too scared of crashing underwater and being trapped in a submarine.
