A disgruntled ex-CIA operative and his assistant take control of a U.S. Navy battleship with the intent to blackmail the government using its nuclear missiles. They have planned meticulously, but they overlook Casey Ryback, a former Navy SEAL turned cook on board the ship. When the operatives kidnap the captain's daughter to bait him into surrendering, Ryback intervenes, leading to a series of confrontations as he attempts to thwart their plans and save the hostages.
