During a business trip to Afghanistan, entrepreneur Tony Stark demonstrates his company, Stark Industries', new weapon, the "Jericho missile" cluster bomb. During the presentation, Stark's convoy is attacked, which leads to a terrorist group, Ten Rings, to kidnap him and order Stark to build a Jericho missile for them. While pretending to do so over the next three months, he and fellow captive Dr. Yinsen build a crude but strong power armor fueled by a miniature "arc reactor", a fictional power source Stark invents. The arc reactor supplies energy to an electromagnet which prevents embedded shrapnel from reaching Stark's heart. While attempting to escape, Dr. Yinsen is killed in the process, as he stalls the guards to buy Stark enough time to power the suit. Using the built-in weapons in his suit, Stark defeats several terrorists, destroys their weapons stockpile, and escapes, though his suit is destroyed as he crashlands in the desert. Upon being picked up by the Air Force and returned to the USA, Stark declares that his company will no longer manufacture weapons, a move which his business partner, Obadiah Stane, tells him is blocked by the board members shortly after.
