“You know [Explicitive] got serious when they strapped a tank cannon on a plane”

In conjunction with the Foundation. Using their advanced intergalactic observation platforms, we have confirmed that an extraterrestrial attack is planned to strike Earth. Possessing XK class weapons, these are the most dangerous we will fight against.

Incident #402837, it happened. The first strike occurred. Two gigantic ships made atmospheric touch and decimated almost all the Earth. The US handled it like a beast but the rest were not lucky. We had to intervene.

One of the first planes to combat the aliens was mass modified from the A-60 to the AX-60. This utilizes reality bending capabilities of the SRA to reduce damage sustained and to boost its performance to the maximum By enlarging the fuselage by twofold and adding another two engines solely for the power for the SRA. Intended for long range to heavy close air support, this can already destroy a naval fleet within seconds using the XTC-120-BCA E2 Cannon, 4 Cleaver class 5000 lb guided cruise missiles, AGMX-240 Air to Ground missiles, and the good Ol reliable AIM9X sidewinder Air to Air missile.

The jet has encounterd the main motherships and based on the performances of Assault #203856 and Incidents #10474 to # 14732, not even one was lost to the enemy fire as it has already taken them out before they even got close.

“Yeah they might be gone for the overkill for this one.”
— Researcher Maines
“Disclosed footage reveals that the scouts have seen interest in the plane and would like some. But the classified tech and the secrecy of the foundation would not allow it.”
—Director of External Affairs Hammings
“Yes”
