Synopsis
In the volatile Gulf of Aden, extremist Islamic pirates, backed by a powerful Saudi terrorist, target civilian vessels. America deploys a cutting-edge littoral warship, 'Satan's Tail,' equipped with advanced automated weapons. However, unforeseen technical glitches and the enemy's fanatical tactics necessitate air support from Dreamland's Megafortresses and Flighthawk escorts. Amidst bitter professional rivalries, a vengeful opponent exploits the chaos, strengthening his outlaw navy and escalating the conflict to a global scale.
