As Ken Watanabes character talks about mankinds hubris in thinking we can control nature, we see just exactly what it can do to us. In this epic shot, soldiers look up in what can presumably be dumbstruck awe as jets literally rain from the sky. This is a continuation of the earlier shot of the mysterious other monster flying into the ocean. Im guessing that the military engaged the creature in combat, which is always a bad idea. It may be insusceptible to military weaponry, but the fact that it is able to take out all those jets in such a way implies some kind of unique attack. Notice how the jets arent actually damaged, but are just falling, like they were shut down in mid-flight. Maybe it possesses an EMP blast or something. Whats great about all this is that, despite knowing almost nothing about this mysterious adversary, by connecting the dots, we already get a sense of how powerful and menacing it is. Hopefully we get some great monster battles.
