Broken Arrow
Major Vic "Deak" Deakins and Captain Riley Hale, pilots from Whiteman Air Force Base, are flying a stealth bomber with two B83 nuclear bombs on a secret exercise. Deakins suddenly attacks Hale and ejects him from the plane. He then jettisons the unarmed bombs, reports that Hale has gone rogue, and ejects, leaving the plane to crash in a national park in rural Utah.
Colonel Max Wilkins send a USAF team to find the missing warheads, and a " Broken Arrow " situation is declared and sends Agent Giles Prentice to oversee the situation. The team locates the warheads in a canyon, but is ambushed by mercenaries and betrayed by Master Sergeant Kelly, who is in league with Deakins. Deakins arrives with Pritchett, the mercenaries' financier. They plan to blackmail the United States government with the threat of detonating the warhead in a populated area.
Hale is arrested by park ranger Terry Carmichael, but he convinces her to help him track down Deakins. Deakins' mercenaries commandeer a search-and-rescue helicopter to kill Hale, but Hale and Carmichael bring it down, forcing Deakins' men to continue in Humvees.
Hale and Carmichael carjack the Humvee carrying the warheads, escaping to a nearby abandoned copper mine. They soon discover that Deakins was using the mine as a checkpoint. Hale starts to disable one warhead, but Deakins reveals via radio that he has programmed it so that Hale's attempts to disarm it will activate the bomb. Hale and Carmichael take the armed warhead down the shaft, where the mine is deep enough to contain the nuclear blast. Deakins's team arrives and secures the second warhead. After a gun battle deep in the mine, Deakins shortens the countdown of the armed warhead and sabotages the keypad to prevent any disarm attempts while leaving Hale and Carmichael trapped. They escape via an underground river just before the bomb detonates. The resulting nuclear electromagnetic pulse downs an approaching NEST helicopter, allowing Deakins to escape. Pritchett reveals a lack of confidence in Deakins' plans, so Deakins kills him and drives off with Kelly. Carmichael and Hale track the mercenaries to a motorboat to be used for transporting the warhead down the river. While trying to steal the boat, Carmichael is forced to hide on board, while military forces rescue Hale.
The U.S. Government is now aware that Deakins betrayed them as he issued a ransom video. Hale deduces that Deakins intends to use a train to transport the warhead to Denver. Stowing away on the train, Carmichael kills one of the mercenaries and tries to sabotage the warhead, but is caught by Deakins, who arms it. Catching up on a helicopter, Hale saves Carmichael before Deakins can kill her. A gunfight ensues, causing the helicopter to crash, killing Wilkins and his pilot, with most of the mercenaries dying in the aftermath.
Deakins has prepared a remote control that can either disarm or detonate the warhead and prepares to leave in his own getaway helicopter. Hale sabotages the helicopter's fuel pump, causing it to explode and leaving Deakins and Kelly stranded with the ticking bomb. Deakins shortens the countdown timer out of spite, however, this does not sit well with Kelly. Hale sneaks up on them and engages in a gun battle with Deakins, but not before sending Kelly off a bridge to his death.
Carmichael detaches the section of the train with the bomb, but gets into a shootout with the engineer. The engineer is killed and falls on the train brakes, allowing the detached boxcars to catch up. Deakins still has the remote detonator, so he forces Hale to drop his gun and challenges him to a fight. Hale overpowers Deakins, acquires the remote detonator, disarms the warhead, and leaps out of the train. Carmichael also jumps from the train before the detached boxcars catch up and collide. The hurtling warhead flies towards Deakins, who stands in the way of it, launching him into a stack of oil barrels, causing the train to derail and the barrels to explode, killing him.
After the explosion, Hale and Carmichael embrace and formally introduce themselves for the first time.
