Is the movie DEFCON-4 available on Netflix, Disney+, Prime or Apple TV+?

At Stream Tracker, I’m taking a look at DEFCON-4 (1985), a lean Cold War shocker in which a nuclear-armed satellite and the outbreak of the Third World War leave a fractured, post‑apocalyptic world in their wake. The film follows two men and a woman who orbit the globe in a deadly payload, only to survive a catastrophic crash that leaves them facing hostile survivors and violent punks who seize control of the ruins. In this article I’ll sum up the film’s premise and tell you where to stream it — whether it’s available on Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video or AppleTV+.

DEFCON-4

Synopsis

Three people — two men and a woman — orbit the Earth in a satellite armed with a nuclear warhead. When World War III erupts, the craft eventually re-enters and crashes months later. They survive the impact, but one man is killed by desperate survivors and the other is taken prisoner. The woman remains at the wreckage, only to be soon captured by a brutal gang of punk marauders who have seized control in the aftermath.
