History
Heisei Series
Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II
Godzilla approached Kyoto to locate BabyGodzilla after defeating Mechagodzilla. Four F-16s led a G-Force attack against him, accompanied by conventional tanks, Maser Cannons, and multiple rocket launchers. As usual, Godzilla was unfazed by their weapons, and shot down two of the F-16s with his atomic ray. As he finished off the ground forces, the remaining F-16s exhausted their ammunition and were forced to retreat. Godzilla continued his way towards the city, following the young Godzillasaurus' telepathic signals.
