Kilo Class

The Russian-built Kilo-Class submarine: diesel-electric, with nuclear capability, silent and undetectable under 5 knots. The only true enemy of the American Carrier Battle Groups - the stealthy, underwater marauder that can chill the hearts of US Navy commanding officers.

The Kilo is now available, at a price, to aspiring nations around the world. China has ordered ten, Russia, desperate for foreign currency,has agreed to sell them. The first three are already on their way. The American Government must stop the order in whatever way necessary to safeguard American interests.

A secret war is launched that will be fought out in the icy depths of the world's oceans and in the vast hinterland of Russia's rivers and lakes. With China determined to have its submarines, Russia, desperate to earn its currency, and America resolved not to allow the delicate balance of world peace to be threatened, this is a war where there can only be one victor...

Kilo Class - a white-knuckle novel of action and suspense that could become reality tomorrow.
