The United States is now in the crosshairs of a renewed, unstoppable enemy intelligence operation.

In Moscow, the relentless Russian president and his key military leader are planning retaliation for the Crimea sanctions. America's newest weapons system, the laser cannon, is ready to be installed on a Zumwalt-class stealth destroyer.

Someone stole the weapon's plans and is ready to hand them to our enemies.
