1985: Flight Lieutenant Adam Nelson is an elite RAF Harrier pilot newly transferred to RAF Germany. While he trains to fly at the limit of his abilities, the Soviets make plans to conquer all of Europe. When war erupts, NATO scrambles to defend itself as the Russians advance over the border into West Germany. With the alliance’s major airbases destroyed in the early stages of the war, it’s up to the RAF Harrier force to delay the 3^rd Shock Army as it races across the North German Plain. British I Corps is counting on the Harriers to provide close air support and destroy Soviet reinforcements as they fight a desperate battle against the Russian hordes. Can Nelson and his fellow pilots make a difference or will the West fall to the tide of enemy tanks and infantry?
