Flight of Fury

Flight of Fury is a 2007 American action film directed by Michael Keusch, and starring Steven Seagal, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Joe Halpin.

Air Force pilot John Sands (Steven Seagal) has been wrongfully imprisoned in a military detention center where his memory is to be chemically wiped out.

His superiors feel threatened by the knowledge he gained from his assignments to operations deemed too sensitive for regular intelligence services.

Barnes has Admiral Frank Pendleton (Tim Woodward), who is on an aircraft carrier in the Gulf of Arabia, keep a team of pilots on standby just in case an air attack needs to be launched on the compound where the X-77 has been hidden; if it isn't recovered they will destroy it.

Before Sands and Jannick arrive in Afghanistan, a Navy SEAL team that was planted there to meet them is killed by a group of men led by Eliana Reed (Katie Jones).

Eliana kidnaps Jannick, and she takes him to her boss, Peter Stone (Vincenzo Nicoli), the man who paid Ratcher $100 million to steal the X-77.

Now, Stone plans to use the X-77 and its pinpoint precision to drop two biological warfare bombs undetected, one of them on Europe and one of them on the United States.
