Based loosely on the plot of the game, the story unfolds in the middle of an interstellar war between the Terran Confederation and the cat-like alien Kilrathi. The movie tells the story of Christopher Blair and Todd Marshall, young pilots assigned to the carrier Tiger Claw, as they fly their first combat missions. A massive Kilrathi armada is en-route for Earth and the Tiger Claw is assigned to fight a suicidal delaying action in order to allow the rest of the Terran fleet to reach Earth.
