The third in the Self-Defense Force's line
of well-armed aerial battleships, the Super-X3
was humankind's greatest weapon following the
disaster of the Mechagodzilla and Moguera projects.
Unlike its predecessors, the Super-X and Super-X2,
this military vehicle boasted enhanced speed,
a low-temperature beam cannon, and a much sleeker
frame. This craft was the peak of its class upon
its creation in the mid-1990's.
As the year 1996 rolled around, Godzilla's reemergence
was beginning to make many in the Japanese government
nervous. Its conflagrant, crimson glow signaled
that it was on the verge of an atomic explosion,
and something had to be done to contain Godzilla's
raw power. Glowing eerily, the monster rose from
the Bungo Channel, prepared to feed off of a nearby
nuclear reactor. In response, the Super-X3 was
dispatched in order to neutralize the hazard with
low-temperature weaponry. With Major Sho Kuroki
at the helm, a veteran of the Super-X project,
the confrontation would prove to be a success.
Boiling the surrounding waters, Godzilla continued
to wade through the sea toward the power plant,
the energy from which he so yearned to absorb.
Suddenly, freezer missiles began to strike Godzilla,
and his temperature began to drop considerably.
Cadmium missiles were fired to neutralize the
beast's radioactive heart, and as it began to
weaken, its flesh began to tighten. The freezer
beam was fired, and this final assault caused
Godzilla to topple into the surf. The monster
was frozen at -200 degrees, and he would continue
to lie in this state for six hours. The Super-X3
returned to base, ready to launch again at a moment's
notice...
Time passed, Godzilla awoke, and he eventually
advanced into Tokyo, following his son. By this
time, it was determined that Godzilla would not
undergo a nuclear explosion, but would instead
be the victim of a much more devastating phenomenon:
a nuclear meltdown! In order to lessen the effects
of such a catastrophic even, the G-Force ordered
the Super-X3 to re-launch. It quickly approached
Tokyo, as Godzilla fought a new, far more despicable
monster: Destoroyah. The Super-X3 soon arrived
on the scene, and as a weakened Destoroyah attempted
to retreat into the sky, the combined force of
the frigid beam weaponry of the ground-based DAG-MB96
cannons struck Destoroyah and instantly halted
its reign of terror.
Godzilla continued to melt, his burning flesh
flowing down the towering frame of his skeletal
structure. The internal temperature of the overheating
leviathan was at a critical 1200 degrees! Freezing
beams of energy emanated from the Super-X3 and
the DAG-MB96 tanks, in a last ditch effort to
lessen the eventual destruction. Godzilla continued
to melt down, expelling radiation on what seemed
to be a doomed city. The levels of radioactivity
suddenly dropped, however, and rising from the
ruins of Tokyo, a completely revitalized Godzilla
Jr. rose to his feet. Revived by his father's
dying energy, Junior was now fully grown. The
legacy of the monster king continued...
