History
Reiwa era
GODZILLA: City on the Edge of Battle
After revealing the finished design of the "mobile weapon" to the force of soldiers who decided to stay on Earth, preparations were made to defeat Godzilla Earth, including protection from his atomic breath and EMP Harpoons. After a promising test, Godzilla discovered Mechagodzilla City and headed for it. Once he was close enough, the three Vultures were deployed, piloted by Haruo Sakaki, Yuko Tani, and Rilu-elu Belu-be, who distracted Godzilla to lead him to a trap point. However, the plan was a failure, as Godzilla began converting his body's excess electromagnetic energy into heat, melting the weapons around him. Nanometal inside the Vultures suddenly began to consume their pilots, revealed to be a scheme of the Bilusaludo all along. In retaliation, Haruo then fired on the command center, blowing it up and killing Galu-gu, but leaving Yuko to succumb to the Nanometalization in the process. Panicked, Haruo pulled her from her Vulture and flew her to safety, only to find that she was seemingly dead.
GODZILLA: The Planet Eater
A Vulture was salvaged by Martin Lazzari, after Ghidorah was killed and humanity started living with the Houtua. Haruo Sakaki saw that the same events would happen and took an unconcious Yuko Tani and fly the weapon to Godzilla. Godzilla fired his atomic breath, destroying Yuko, Haruo, and the Vulture.
Abilities
- The Vultures have large wings, enabling flight.
- The Vultures are equipped with firepower equivalent to that of 300 Hover Bikes.[1]
