During a sea battle, a military radar operator stationed on a war ship equipped with a highly sophisticated weapons system, mistakenly identifies an approaching civilian aircraft as a hostile f-14. The plane is shot down and all 290 people on board are killed. The ensuing investigation shows how fear led to a chain of errors, and a catastrophic blunder. (iTunes)
