The A-Team is hired to test the security for a sheikh somewhere in the Middle East. They overcome his guards with ease, and so are put in charge of the security for his daughter, Princess Salina, and Prince Hassan. The team sets to work only to find themselves being undermined at every turn, and after a raid on the airport the plane that was to transport Salina to her wedding crashes in the wilderness. The team is forced to make their way through rough desert terrain, dodging attacks from terrorists who want to stop the wedding and create destabilization in the region.
