In Air Battle Force, US Air Force aerial warfare expert Major General Patrick McLanahan and his air combat unit of the future were secretly deployed to the oil-rich nation of Turkmenistan to stop a Taliban invasion. To punish the US for their audacity, Russian president General Anatoliy Gryzlov stages a sneak attack that devastates America s strategic air forces. McLanahan has collected information that gives him the data he needs to plan a counterstrike to stop the Russian war machine dead in its tracks. But Patrick is no longer in charge of Air Battle Force, and the embattled US president has few options: retaliate with every weapon in his arsenal, even if it triggers a global thermonuclear war, or agree to a cease fire on Russia s terms or listen to a disgraced and discredited young bomber commander s long-shot plan of attack.
