The Foxbat and the Hornet

Publisher Description

Two Pilots. One Night. One Shot at Glory.

The opening night of Operation Desert Storm: a flashpoint in history, told from inside the cockpits.

The air over the Persian Gulf is thick with the smell of jet fuel and fear. For Lieutenant Commander Scott Speicher, his sleek American F/A-18 Hornet is a predator ready to strike. His mission is vital: take out the deadly missile sites threatening the allied forces.

Hundreds of miles away, Iraqi Air Force Lieutenant Zuhair Dawood straps into his massive MiG-25 Foxbat, a beast built for pure speed and high-altitude dominance. His mission: stop the incoming storm.

Under a canopy of stars, two elite pilots, from two different worlds, climb into the chaos.

Inside this gripping, short historical thriller, you will:

•Experience the intense, split-second decisions fighter pilots make in combat.
•See how a single, dramatic encounter can change the course of a war—and a life.

This is more than a story about war; it's a focused, dramatic look at duty, courage, and the moment two lives intersect in the darkness.
