Eleven years have passed since the future’s robot terminator tried to kill Sarah Connor. Sarah has given birth to a son—John Connor—who in the future will lead the forces of human resistance in the fight against machines gone out of control. This future is drawing closer relentlessly: a group of engineers from Cyberdyne Systems, led by the talented programmer Miles Dyson, is already creating a revolutionary processor from the surviving remains of the T-800 terminator destroyed in the first film. When, based on that processor, the military will build the artificial intelligence “Skynet,” it will soon get out of control and, by controlling the entire US military might, at 02:14 on August 29, 1997, will launch a nuclear strike against Russia—after which Russia will counterattack with its nuclear weapons, resulting in the deaths of three billion people; the “Judgment Day” will begin.
