The gravity cannon is ready to go up against the Death Stinger, the only problem is that they must get the Death Stinger to hold still long enough for it to feel the full impact of the gravity cannon. The decision to use the delta formation is used. Once the Death Stinger is in sight Van, Irvine, and Thomas leave in their zoids leaving Van as the back point of the triangle. They manage to get the delta formation completed, only this time when the get into the formation it creates a pyramid shield barrier trapping the Death Stinger inside. The cannon shoots, but just before it gets close enough to the Death Stinger it breaks the shield barrier and fires its Charged Particle Beam, destroying the shell. The fighters come to the conclusion that if they take off their shields they can concentrate more energy on the barrier, the fight commences. Finally they reform the delta formation this time concentrating every bit of energy on the barrier.
