Following the mysterious disappearance of an oil rig and a reconnaissance minisubmarine in the Gulf of Mexico, scientist Dr. Margaret Adams initiates the Armada Program, which consists of giant robots designed for deep sea rescue. The three robotspiloted by Red, Tracy and Jimdive nearly 800 fathoms to the sea bed, where they not only discover the mangled remains of the oil rig, but encounter the monster that brought it down. Red pursues the monster against orders from Admiral Hadley, prompting the Admiral to order every naval fleet on the East Coast to converge to the oil rigs site.
