IS ABOUT TO BEGIN....
 The egomaniacal alien Kilrathi have struck again,

worse, they have captured a NAVCOM device that will
lead them straight to Earth!
 Chris Blair and his pal Maniac are young cadets fresh
 from the Academy. Their first ship, the Tiger Claw, has an
 awesome mission: Recover the NAVCOM and stop the
Kilrathi at all costs.
 But Blair's fighting wing - Earth's--last hope--is seething
with internal strife. For somewhere along the thin red
 heroes a traitor lurks!
