The Super X2 (スーパーＸＩＩ,   Sūpā Ekkusu Tsū) is a remote-control aerial vehicle used by the JSDF that first appeared in Godzilla vs. Biollante. It was built using the remains of the original Super X.

History

Godzilla vs. Biollante

The Super X2 was built to defend Japan in case of foreign nations, or giant monsters, attacking. It was built to be able to be flown from a control room, Sho Kuroki being chosen to be in charge.

After Godzilla escaped from inside the volcano he was trapped in at the end of The Return of Godzilla, he headed out to the Sea of Japan. The Super X2 was dispatched to intercept Godzilla, and engaged Godzilla soon after. The Super X2's Fire Mirror reflected Godzilla's atomic breath in the form of a golden light, causing Godzilla to retreat below the ocean waves. The Super X2 followed Godzilla and fired twin explosive tipped torpedoes, forcing the monster to surface. Godzilla attempted to use his atomic breath against the Super X2 again, which it reflected. However, Godzilla sustained his atomic blast until it began to melt the Super X2's shield. To defend against Godzilla, the Super X2 closed the maw of the shield and bombarded Godzilla with missiles and shells, which had no effect on Godzilla. Godzilla then swung his tail at the Super X2, putting it out of commission temporarily.

Assessing the damage done to the Super X2, Kuroki was informed that the Fire Mirror's parabolic screen couldn't be repaired in time. The Super X2 was sent to Osaka, where Godzilla was headed. There, it kept Godzilla at a distance with the rest of its weapons and lured him between several buildings where soldiers armed with bazooka shells of Anti-Nuclear Energy Bacteria awaited Godzilla. Godzilla, not being quite in the range, almost started to move back and leave, but Sho Kuroki decided to open the Fire Mirror to lure Godzilla to where they needed him to be. Godzilla blasted the Super X2, causing it to fall to the ground, but also make Godzilla move within distance of the soldiers.

• The Super X2 is also the only Super X to be submersible, able to operate in extreme depths down to 10,000 meters.
