Description
Picking up where PERSIAN TOMCATS left off, a lone F-14 Persian Tomcat of the Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force has survived the air battle and landed at a civilian airport inside Iran. Ten days later, a United States reconnaissance satellite spotted the jet fighter during a routine overflight. Upon dispatching the CIA to investigate, an alarming discovery was made. The Iranians had preserved one of the improved AIM-54 Phoenix missiles and converted it into a powerful cruise missile, capable of delivering chemical weapons to ground targets a hundred miles away.
In order to prevent an all-out war between the United States and Iran, the U.S. president must make a difficult decision to relieve Iran of its latest weapon. Since an outright strike against a civilian airport is out of the question, he orders a near-impossible covert mission. With the assistance of the CIA and SEAL Team Nine, the Last Persian Tomcat will be taken from Iran and flown to safety.

Another excellent book Mitch Boling. Just like the first it brought me back to my flight line days. Hope you keep them coming. I did think I detected another story line at the end of chapter 18 (I think this was the chapter). Thanks for the great reading.
