Expend4bles

The Expendables go to Libya to stop the mercenary Suarto Rahmat from stealing nuclear warheads for a terrorist named Ocelot. The mission goes wrong: the plane is shot down and Barney's body appears burned in the wreckage. At the memorial, CIA operative Marsh puts Gina and Lash on the team in place of Christmas, but Christmas tracks the group. The target is a ship disguised as an American aircraft carrier, and Ocelot's plan is to provoke World War III.
