| Plot Summary of Storming Intrepid |
"A spectacular and thrilling story about a Russian attempt to hijack Star Wars military technology by planting a deep cover spy on board the space shuttle Intrepid. However, the mission goes wrong when one of the US astronauts disables the shuttle's retro-rockets and it is trapped in orbit. Using every kind of military and space technology they have at their disposal, Russia and America will do all it takes to recover the shutlle and its valuable cargo - even to the point of escalating to military conflict. Awesome technology including a secret space fighter, stealth bombers and killer satellites add to the excitement!"
