This book is one of Tom Clancys' best books i've ever read the detail and amount of research that Clancy put into this novel is evident.

there is lots of terrorists
SOT Long Rifle Marksman

Tom Didn’t touch the real aspects of a SOT (Special Operations Team) In All honesty no Assaulter would use a 10mm for the fact that it would not pierce any real tactical armor. The fact that the team had a SAWO (Squad Automatic Weapon Operator) was insane a Weapon like that in a full auto burst is uncontrollable and will punch through a tank! It would have no problem going through a suspect into a innocent. A NATO Operated team would NEVER ride a Commercial AirLiner for the fact that it would put innocent civilians at risk and in harms way. A SOT like that would become a would target in a matter of days. Their security was high in the aspects of physical protection of the people on base but information leaks would have been unstoppable. His writing was superb but for those of us who live in the Real would of Enforcement and defense to protect and serve it was a bit comical on the tactical side. I mean who in their right mind would use a 10mm sub auto when they have a budget that allows them to use Fasmas, ICW’s, HKG36s, or even M4s. No True soldier would use such a light weapon when he knows he will most likely be going up against the most dangerous and deadliest men, mercenaries, and warriors alive

It was kind've hard to understand some parts. Its a very fasanating book. I enjoy his books. I liked it better then Without Remorse. Some parts got kind of boring too.
Maverick

Pretty Cool read, even with a busy schedulle i still have time to read a book like this, just compels you to come back and read a few more pages.
Jordan

The book can be boring at times but overall its a pretty good book. Not one of
Clancy's best, but pretty good.
