Concluding that planet Fairy is in fact the collective of JAM itself and that JAM infiltrators are on the eve of starting a mutiny, the FAF devises a plan to lure JAM infiltrators into a trap while pulling the rest of their forces out of Fairy. In response, JAM arrays its entire fighting force between the FAF and their portal of escape and hijacks some of the FAF's UCAVs, causing chaos within FAF formations. Intent on settling scores with JAM, who have repeatedly tried to hack the Yukikaze AI, Rei Fukai and the AI launch in one final sortie to escort nuclear weapons into the heart of the JAM collective, giving the FAF the opening they need to escape and seemingly sacrificing themselves in the process.
