Plot

A former US special agent-turned-mercenary named Eddy Williams sneaks aboard a battleship disguised as a navy officer where an international terrorist named Mustapha Amed is held. Armed with a rapid-firing, multi-purpose machine gun, Williams releases Amed, kills many crewmen and soldiers on the ship and gets away with the terrorist. Mike Thompson, a former government agent, is forced to come out of retirement by his former superior officer, Hanson, to help the government track down and find Williams and Amed before they plan a major terrorist strike using the multi-purpose weapon. Thompson seeks assistance of a mercenary friend of his, named Pappy, to help find Williams while a seductive female agent, named Corey Parker, is assigned to keep a close eye on Thompson and of his movements. Williams and Thompson both have a personal grudge against the other when, while serving in Vietnam, Williams attempted to kill Thompson during a firefight and left him for dead. When Williams learns that Thompson is alive and after him, he decides to use Corey as a hostage to get Thompson to approach him for a showdown.
