E1Escaping Armageddon
Mar 17, 202643m
In the razor's-edge theater of global brinkmanship, the world has come closer to annihilation than most ever knew. A NATO war game once spooked the Soviets toward a potential nuclear strike, while a daring Cold War project produced a drone-bomber hybrid capable of carrying 16 nuclear weapons. From experimental war machines to the Presidential "Doomsday Plane" built to command America through apocalypse, these are the plans that reveal how near we've stood to the unthinkable.

May 12, 202642m

E10
E10Extreme Extractions
Jun 11, 202642m
Some rescues read like Hollywood - except they were real. In Operation Halyard, villagers and resistance fighters built an airstrip by hand to spirit stranded airmen out of Nazi territory, while Operation Mount Hope saw American forces steal a Soviet helicopter from the African desert under cover of darkness. Decades earlier, the SAS hijacked a train in occupied Italy to liberate 200 prisoners - an extraordinary feat that proved extraction can be as daring as any assault.
E11
E11Masters of DeceptionUPCOMING
Jun 23, 202642m
To outmaneuver the enemy, you have to sell the illusion. An FBI agent goes so deep undercover he's the best man at a Mafia wedding, while the Stasi deploys a covert network of charmers across borders to win trust and steal secrets. And in Egypt, a German-born Jewish spy poses as a high-flying, champagne-soaked ex-Nazi to infiltrate its missile program for Israel. Different missions, one rule: if they believe you, you're already inside.
E12
E12Rogue MissionsUPCOMING
Jun 30, 202642m
Some missions are so risky, they're denied before they even begin. From a covert Mossad operation to abduct a Nazi war criminal in Argentina-identified through the smallest detail, the shape of his ears-to a chilling CIA plot that used a jazz tour as cover for an assassination attempt in the Congo; to one resistance fighter volunteering to be captured and sent to Auschwitz to reveal the horrors within-these operations are proof that the most dangerous missions are often the most unthinkable.
