Stealth Plot Summary

What happens in Stealth from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 15 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 3-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

In 2016, the United States Navy initiates a groundbreaking program aimed at confronting international terrorists and state enemies swiftly and discreetly. This venture includes the testing of advanced technology, featuring three cutting-edge single-seat attack jets known as the F/A-37 Talon series, renowned for their incredible speed, stealth, and impressive payload capacity.

Over 400 pilots vie for the chance to participate, but only three are selected: the clever and audacious Lieutenant Ben Gannon, portrayed by Josh Lucas; the tomboyish yet resourceful Lieutenant Kara Wade, played by Jessica Biel; and the street-smart, philosophical Lieutenant Henry Purcell, brought to life by Jamie Foxx. Their inaugural test mission is a remarkable success, achieving a perfect score of 100/100, based on maximum enemy casualties while minimizing harm to civilians.
