History

Showa era
Destroy All Monsters
While flying around its lunar base, the Moonlight SY-3 sighted a Kilaak UFO flying around the Moon.
After Godzilla and the other monsters defeated King Ghidorah, a Kilaak UFO, identified as a kaiju called the "Fire Dragon," emerged from the Kilaak base. Flying across the battlefield at high speed, the Fire Dragon set Rodan's back on fire. Godzilla tried to shoot it down with his atomic breath, but the spacecraft dodged, continuing to pursue Rodan before setting its sights on a nearby city, destroying a building, then several JASDF jets that attempted to intercept it. Fortunately, Godzilla located the Kilaaks' base and tore his way into it, lowering the interior's temperature and forcing the Kilaaks inside to enter into hibernation. Shortly afterwards, the Moonlight SY-3, having just returned from the lunar expedition, engaged the Fire Dragon in battle, eventually destroying it with a missile.
Reiwa era
Godziban
By using Gorath's crystal heart to absorb Taigo's and Mirei's energy, approximately thirteen Kilaaks fused and transformed into a Kilaak UFO. The UFO then used a bolt of energy to transform a larger group of Kilaaks into the monster Kilafadoras.

Weapons
Fire Dragon
The Kilaak UFO can create incredible amounts of heat, covering itself in flames. Through this method, the spaceship can ravage anything in its path, seemingly without damaging itself in the process. This fire is strong enough to even set kaiju such as Rodan ablaze. When on fire, this mode is referred to as the "Fire Dragon."
