A pinnacle of humanity's might during the early
1950's, the Missile Launcher Trucks faced the
greatest of monsters ever to walk the earth. Developed
more to attack large areas than be accurate, 24
highly explosive rockets can be released. With
only a few to Japan's arsenal, the vehicles were
first deployed against Godzilla and Anguirus when
they made landfall in Osaka. Showering the twin
behemoths in fiery blossoms of flames, the trucks
did little to stem the animalistic fury that gripped
each beast. By the time a victor emerged from
the war, the Missile Launcher Trucks were depleted
of ammo.
After Godzilla left the city, another monster
showed itself in Japan. Soaring across the skies
two winged demons, known as the Rodans, came.
Striking quickly and with hurricane force winds,
the military bided their time before they finally
landed. When their taloned feet touched the earth,
they were meet with flying rockets. Exploding
all around their scaly forms, and the ground,
the Missile Launcher Trucks did little to ward
away the birds of prey. It almost seemed as if
their cackling when they flew away was full of
mockery.
The next stage in the Missile Launcher Trucks'
life was even less reputable than the Rodan invasion.
Staged against the awesome technology of Moguera,
the rockets were nothing. Their raining power
did nothing more than shred the ground from which
Moguera stalked.
The last true step in the trucks life was going
to be the final straw. Swimming to Tokyo, a beast
dubbed Varan approached. Figuring that the cars
will have to be used again, the military moved
the trucks to Tokyo. Cutting the timing extremely
close, they loaded the launchers onto three Landing
Crafts. When the saurian emerged from the thrashing
waves, the beast was greeted with hellfire and
brimstone. Hailing the moving mountain of flesh
and bone in bleaching fire. But again like it
dictated, they were useless, and Varan nearly
leveled all of Tokyo.
After the Varan incident no more Missile Launcher
Trucks were built to handel the kaiju threats
to Japan due to there ineffectivness against the
opposition. The vehicles would be deployed several
times afterwards however, during the Xilien invasion
and the attack from the Space Hunter Nebula M
Aliens.
