Destruction of the Flying Fortress/A.I.M. Operative Controller

The Destruction of the Flying Fortress was a successful attempt by Tony Stark to destroy the Maggia's final resources.
==Background==
Tony Stark ended weapons production at Stark Industries, cancelling their contract with the Maggia. The Maggia, who were planning to sell Stark weapons, became angry and attacked Stark Industries Headquarters. Stark became frustrated and began targeting Maggia facilities to destroy their weapons. Stark went to the Nefaria Compound to finally destroy the remainder of their weapons. The destruction caused the Maggia's ranks to fall apart, threatening to bankrupt the organization. However, the Maggia had already bought a Flying Fortress which they were planning to use.Iron Man
==Destruction==
Tony Stark approached the Flying Fortress and lost access to his radar system, which J.A.R.V.I.S. realized was because of a radar jammer on the ship. Stark destroyed the jammer while J.A.R.V.I.S. reported that the shields were designed by Stark Industries. Stark remembered a design flaw in the shields, so Stark overloaded the shields and destroyed the weapons they were protecting. Stark was attacked by helicopters, which he punched holes in and destroyed.
As Stark destroyed the external weapons, he landed on top of the fortress and was attacked by soldiers while J.A.R.V.I.S. told him where to find the blueprints for the fortress. Stark found the blueprints and had J.A.R.V.I.S. analyze it for weak points. He revealed that surge protection circuits protected all the reactors on the fortress. He marked their location on the outside of the fortress, and Stark left to destroy them, fighting Maggia soldiers and helicopters as he did so. Stark then entered the fortress through the bay doors and told J.A.R.V.I.S. to safeguard the conduits for a power surge to end their fight.
The fortress deployed mines to target a civilian area, so Stark destroyed it. He then returned to the fortress and caused a power surge, blowing up the fortress. Pepper Potts contacted Stark and congratulated him for destroying the Maggia.
==Aftermath==
Tony Stark's efforts destroying the Maggia's resources, culminating in the destruction of the Flying Fortress, ended the Maggia's weapons trade for good. Stark turned his attention to the larger issue: destroying all weapons which had been sold by Stark Industries. He focused on A.I.M., who was working with Obadiah Stane to create a new armor. Stark stopped A.I.M. from two attempts to steal a power source for the Armor, so Stane stole Stark's Arc Reactor. Stark defeated A.I.M. and killed Stane, focusing on his new mission as Iron Man.
