Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Denied a big budget, Jet Attack scores dramatic points by concentrating on the human side of warfare. Shot down behind enemy lines in North Korea, jet jockeys Tom (John Agar), Bill (Gregory Walcott) and Chick (Nicky Blair) link up with Russian nurse Tanya (Audrey Totter). She insists that she's on their side, and that she wants to help a captured atomic scientist escape the clutches of the Communists. Bill and Chick don't buy her story, but Tom is more flexible. After numerous narrow escapes, the survivors of the ordeal streak back to South Korea in a hijacked MIG jet. Jet Attack was originally released on a double bill with Suicide Battalion.
