LIBERTY'S VANGUARD

Battlefield Europe: Intelligence sources have confirmed that when Eastern-bloc nations plan to attack the west on the battle-scarred land of West Germany-victory will lie in who controls the skies. And the East has developed a flying arsenal weapon to achieve it. To meet the challenge, a British government espionage agency has built the top-secret HAMMERHEAD: the mightiest helicopter in military history! With monster engines that can cut through the dark like silent thunder, this advanced anti-tank buster is as swift , sleek, and deadly as the shark it is named for. But the gunship has yet to be tested, and only one man is up to that job; former RAF pilot David Pross.

Test-piloting a state-of-the-art mastercraft is a flyer's dream. But foreign agents are out to capture or destroy this new threat to the balance of air power. And Pross, along with British agent Sian Logan, will find themselves pursued-from the enemy-infested forests of Europe to the mysterious Himalayas-testing cutting edge technology and their own skills and courage to the limits...while the fate of the free world hangs in the balance.
