World premiere: Lalo Schifrin mystery track

In 1996, Germany's Delta music issued a crappy 3 CD collection of TV themes called "TV Hits", played by "Orchestra Bruno Bertone", who actually played all instruments on his synthesizer.

However, there was one track that caught my attention: "Cobra", credited to Lalo Schifrin. Now, one could assume that this is the well-known "Mission: Impossible" theme, as this series was alled in Germany "Kobra, übernehmen Sie" (translated "Cobra, take the assignment"). But as this a very recognizable theme you will find yourself that the track is definitely NOT from this score:

Cobra_by_Bruno_Bertone

So where is it from ? It sounds like Schifrin in the 80ies (for example, "Sudden Impact"), but as all the tracks on the 3 CDs are from TV it has probably to be a series. Or perhaps there was just a wrong composer listed ?

Please help !
