[edit] Story

Yoko is hired by Colonel Tagashi of the Japanese Secret Intelligence Service and businessman Peter Hertzel to discover the whereabouts of giant cannon shells shipped to the Kra Isthmus. The shells are actually meant for a giant German World War II cannon, and a despotic madman is not hesitant to use the weapon against the government of the small state of Kampong to underscore his demands. Yoko uses a motorised glider Colibri to locate the cannon and collaborates with a group of resistance fighters to disable the weapon.
