The F-15J fighter jets were piloted by the finest in the Japanese armed forces. With thousands of hours under their belts, they set off to strike the nuclear horror that had plagued their land for decades, Godzilla. Never before had such grace befell a maneuver when the jets fought back. Lowering from the rolling clouds, the five planes attacked from all sides, all hitting with their deadly cargo at once in a cloud of hate. Then, like soaring Robins in the noonday sun, they pulled up and drove back into the cover of the sky pulling off a maneuver that one would only expect to see in the enclosed environment of an air show. But, like so many others, the Sidewinders did little to halt the monster.
