内容简介

In the Nevada desert, the high-tech future of warfare is being conceived and constructed at a top-secret military facility called Dreamland. The beast is alive and prowling the high seas. As extremist Islamic pirates, armed and supported by a powerful Saudi terrorist, prey on civilian vessels in the Gulf of Aden, America aggressively answers with serious muscle -- a next-generation littoral warship with a full range of automated weapons systems that the enemy has dubbed "Satan's Tail." However, unforeseen technological problems combined with the suicidal tendencies of a fanatical foe mean support is needed from above -- and a pair of Dreamland's awesome Megafortresses and their Flighthawk escorts are dispatched to the war zone. But bitter professional rivalries threaten to damage, perhaps even destroy, the mission, and a vengeful opponent takes advantage of the disruption to strengthen his outlaw navy -- raising the stakes in a battle the U.S. and the world simply cannot afford to lose. Performed by Larry Pressman
