Day of the cheetah - Dale Brown

RETRIEVE—OR DESTROY

Once perfected, the aircraft nicknamed ‘DreamStar’ will be America’s new air-superiority fighter and the world’s deadliest combat-ready weapon. Even the advanced ‘Cheetah,’ a heavily modified two-seater F-15E, is beginning to show its age — relegated to being the older, less ‘intelligent’ cousin of DreamStar.

BUT UNKNOWN TO THE CHEETAH’S PILOT

Lieutenant Colonel Pat McLanahan — former navigator of the B-52 ‘Old Dog’ — a KGB mole has infiltrated the DreamStar project. When the mole hijacks the superplane, it is up to McLanahan to get the fighter back — despite the overwhelming odds stacked against him.

DAY OF THE CHEETAH

With its thrilling dog-fights, nail-biting suspense and convincing characters, it is the ultimate novel of high-tech aviation. It rockets to a breathtaking and shattering finale.
