🎬 Synopsis
Two elite French Air Force pilots, Capitaine Antoine “Walk'n” Launay and Capitaine Sébastien “Fahrenheit” Vallois, fly Mirage 2000 fighters. During a routine airshow, a rogue pilot in a stolen Mirage opens fire on the crowd. After shooting him down, Walk'n and Fahrenheit are drawn into a conspiracy involving stolen fighter jets, espionage, and a terrorist plot targeting an international summit. The film features real aerial combat footage with no CGI jets — all flight sequences are practical, shot in-camera with actual Mirage 2000s. sky fighters 2005 bluray 480p 720p
