As Saber Platoon retreated, the battle was being watched by a rather unassuming German vetren. Herman Carnip had been in the Deutsched Heer as an air defense gunner. While on a Joint NATO Air Defense exercise he had taken part in the Battle of Los Vegas.
The experience with the Hulk had left an impression on him. When it came time to make the new Latervian Self Propelled Anti-Air Gun he had been invited to help having proving him self a low level technical genius. Now he sat in the gunners seat of SPAAG
Model 4 Serial number A0001 behind him was a French Commander, and the driver was a Norwegian who had driven the CV9030 that the chassis was based on. The Para-demons were advancing on the "Fuda line".
"This is Doom," The radio crackled, "Dragon Slayer 0001 began targeting fire."
Carnip flipped the system from NIR to LIDAR and sighted the first mutated Para-demon. He flipped the system behind safe and training to test, got all green lights, then flipped back forward to Known hostile. He got tone and then squeezed off one round.
The shell the size of two pre-invasion American soda cans slammed into the chest of the Para-demon, The Adamantiam coating and penetrator ripped in as the plasma shell skidded to a halt inside the monster. Everyone saw the thing explode from the inside.
"Doom this is Dragon Slayer 0001," Carnip said over the radio, "Test Fire successful!"
"This is Doom to all Dragon Slayers, CLEAR MY SKY!"
Carnip flipped the switch forward past manuel aim to the last setting "INVASION", and SQUEEZED.

The Mandarin shook with rage. His work was being dismantled in seconds. Theses new weapons were never imagined. The last time that Latveria had used Air Defense guns was in the 70's before Doctor Doom took over. All of the Para-demons were being ripped
to shreds, even his mutant Para-demons.
Kalibak looked at Mandarin and inside his head he wondered what size dish to use for serving the Mandarin's head.

Ben was like a horse at the gate, he couldn't wait to go.
"What are we waiting for?" Franklin asked.
"Hopefully for nothing kid," Ben said, "But if they break out past the Fuda Line, We will go to re-enforce the NATO and Hydra Lines."
