A military espionage thriller!
A radical new sixth-generation air superiority fighter is poised to revolutionize combat, but its future is threatened by betrayal, murder, and a vast conspiracy.
Retired Air Force test pilot, Ogdan Kostan, knows the future is in unmanned remotely controlled vehicles, the F/X-26. He uses his luxury jets company as a secret testbed to push his concept to completion.
When faced with betrayal by one of his directors and assistant – a case of love spurned – he orders his chief of security to kill them to keep the F/X-26 secret. Completed, Kostan demonstrates the radical fighter to the military, a first vital step to have it accepted by the Pentagon in its budget submission to Congress. The aerospace lobby immediately launches a campaign to destroy the F/X-26, as it threatens their own programs for the next generation fighter.
Determined to do whatever it takes to have his fighter accepted, Kostan blackmails corrupt politicians to counter the aerospace lobby. When the FBI steps in to investigate his activities, Kostan finds himself cornered, battling on every front to see his fighter fly.
This explosive military-political thriller plunges into the dark heart of defense contractors, government corruption, and a desperate fight for technological dominance.
