Eclair
|
The Eclair (エクレール is an aerial vehicle used by the Ekurēru)Earth Defense Force to eradicate monstrous threats across the globe that first appeared in Godzilla Final Wars.
History
Millennium era
Godzilla Final Wars
The Eclair was first deployed against Kamacuras when it was attacking Paris during a global monster invasion. The giant praying mantis seemed to have the advantage, landing on top of the Eclair and raining down blows on the ship's hull with its claws, until it suddenly vanished. Shortly thereafter, the alien race known as the Xiliens revealed themselves and claimed to have destroyed the monsters as a gift to humanity. When Anna Otonashi, Captain Douglas Gordon, and others exposed the Xiliens as the controllers of the monsters, the aliens unleashed Kamacuras and the rest of their army on the cities of the world once more. The Eclair's final fate is unknown, though it was likely destroyed defending Paris.

MA-PM020 heat-seeking Proton Missiles

Iron Ball Maser
The Eclair is capable of firing an Iron Ball Maser from the sphere mounted on the front,[1] although this was not demonstrated in the film.
