* In the ActionPrologue of ''Film/TomorrowNeverDies'', Film/JamesBond must infiltrate an arms fair for international terrorists and the like to confirm its location and is observing the event. Over the objections of M, who wants Bond to finish his recon, British and Russian generals order a Tomahawk missile to destroy the equipment. As the missile is launched, Bond discovers an L-39 Albatros with ''nuclear torpedoes'' on board, fights his way to it and steals it just in time before the place is obliterated.
