Delta Force 2: The Colombian Connection is a movie that is a sequel to the 1986, The Delta Force, also starring Chuck Norris as Col. Scott McCoy, who almost single-handedly saves the people of San Carlos, and more importantly the people of America from drugs. In some provinces, this film is also known as Delta Force 2: The Meat Connection.

Basic Plot

Colombian drug lord Ramon Cota (Billy Drago) controls the cocaine industry with an iron fist. His drugs pour steadily into America, corrupting the country's youth and creating a feud between the D.E.A and San Carlos, Cota's country of origin. When Colonel Scott McCoy (Chuck Norris) , and his sworn partner Bobby Chavez attempt to bring him to court, their efforts are all in vain, as Cota easily affords the bail bond and escapes to freedom. Unable to contain his rage, Major Chavez furiously lashes out at Cota in court. After staring at a guard for a while, Cota decides to strike at Chavez through his pregnant wife and 13 year old son. Out on a personal mission of vengeance, Major Chavez is captured by Cota's forces and is tortured/killed. When a platoon of soldiers attempt to go in and bring Cota and his army down, they are taken hostage, surely to be executed soon. McCoy leads a brigade of skydiving commandos in, along with himself, to rescue the hostages and exact violent revenge upon Cota.

Trivia

• Five crew members were killed in a helicopter accident during filming. The film is dedicated in their memory. They were: Jojo Imperial (pilot) Geoff Brewerr (stuntman) Gadi Danzig (cameraman) Michael Graham (key grip) Don Marshall (gaffer).

• Filmed entirely in the Philippines. The "Palace In The Sky" resort in Tagaytay was used as the setting for Ramon Cota's hideout.

• The cast also included Filipino actors Subas Herrero (as the President of San Marcos) and Rina Reyes (as Cota's concubine).

• When Ramon Cota's personal palace is hit by missiles Ramon seems to be contemplating an egg.

• Billy Drago's 'fat suit' that he wore while falling from the plane was originally designed for secretly-thin, comedy-bigot Bernard Manning.

• The European term 'Meat Connection' is closely linked to the smell of 'Pulse' Cider, which gives off faint whiffs of corned beef. On this tour of the U.K, Chuck Norris proclaimed that his next film would have the term 'The Meat Connection' as it's subtitle. Since Pulse is not sold in America, it was changed to 'The Columbian Connection' by the executive producer, Frederick West.
