Die israelische Luftwaffe verwendete die Mirage III jahrzehntelang in intensiven Luftkaempfen mit ihren Nachbarstaaten. In diesen Konflikten wurde Giora Epstein, das israelische Fliegerass schlechthin, zum gefeierten Helden. In einer der gewaltigsten Schlachten des Duesenjaeger-Zeitalters nahm er es mit einem ganzen Schwarm aegyptischer MiG-21-Kampfjäger auf. In dieser Serie von HISTORY werden die spektakulären Kaempfe mit hochmodernen Computersimulationen detailiert nachgestellt. Aufnahmen in der Egoperspektive, einzigartiges Filmmaterial und Originalaufnahmen vermitteln dem Zuschauer das Gefühl, live bei den Kämpfen dabei gewesen zu sein.
