Prologue
In late June 2022, Robert and Irma Lair traveled to New York City with their friends to visit Irma's parents. Two days later, three nuclear missiles were detected heading for the area, forcing Robert and the others to cut their trip short and evacuate via their Learjet 45XR. Irma's mother, Anna, was with the group, but Irma's father, Tom, was killed when his NYPD helicopter was hit by the nuclear blast wave and crashed. An investigation revealed that the source of the missiles was a terrorist group that built a base in southern Greenland. The Air Force launched a bomber strike on the base, but the remaining terrorists struck again two months later when they took an international diplomat hostage in western Russia. The USMC launched a rescue mission with air support from an Air Force AC-130U Spectre gunship. The remaining terrorists were wiped out in the process.
After a year of investigation, it was discovered that the terrorists responsible for the attack on New York turned out to be a commando group from Iran. Though the Iranian government denies this and accuses America of "jumping to conclusions", the American military (and most civilians) know the real truth. As a result of these latest events, tensions between the two countries have risen. The people of both nations realized that the tensions could explode into an all-out war; it was only a matter of time.
