The Story
 
          In a nondescript boxing ring, two fighters square off. Suddenly, fists
     in boxing gloves rush at each other -- and us -- with explosive force.
          The intensity of the combatant's blows belies the fact that they are
     friends engaging in a spirited round of fisticuffs. Vic Deakins (JOHN
     TRAVOLTA), the older and more experienced of the two is definitely in
     control, giving his young friend Riley Hale (CHRISTIAN SLATER) an
     impressive, if painful, boxing lesson.
          In addition to having a mentor/protege relationship in the ring,
     Deakins and Hale are colleagues -- crack military pilots who are about to
     be handed a choice assignment to fly the top-secret B-3 Stealth bomber
     on a test run. Their cargo: two nuclear warheads. Although anything but
     routine, the mission should go without incident. But a shocking treachery
     is about to put millions of lives at risk ... as the timer on an incredible
     nuclear extortion plot ticks toward ground zero.
          In an instant, the once close friends become engaged in an explosive
     battle against time and each other with the fate of a major American city
     at stake. In the air and on the ground, in planes, on tops of trains, and
     clinging to careening Humvees, theirs is a no-holds-barred race to
     recover a lost nuclear weapon -- a "BROKEN ARROW."
