action
The United States Air Force wants to bring two F-117 Nighthawk stealth jets back from Turkey to the USA in a top secret action . But during the transport on board a C-5 Galaxy, brutal terrorists storm the scene and take control on board. Only the fighter pilot Christopher Winfield can evade capture. In the course of the story it turns out that the unscrupulous arms dealer and leader of the terrorist group Phillips also previously served in the air force, but was dismissed. In revenge, he wants to sell the stealth bombers on the black market. To prevent this, Winfield uses guerrilla tactics to kill one terrorist after the other until Phillips tries to run away with the stealth jets and disappears from the tailgate of the aircraft. But Winfield is pursuing him. Chris kills Phillips in a rapid air battle.
Action note
The wingspan of the F-117A is much larger than the width of the cargo hold of a C-5. So it is not possible to transport an F-117A with attached wings in a C-5.

criticism
“An adventure film of excessive exaggeration. The considerable amount of visual effects and brutalities played out save him neither from boredom nor from the impression of intrusive stupidity. "
