===War of 2016===
Jake was stationed on the moon where they are installing another new space weapon on the moon base but when something went wrong Jake saved the moon base from being crushed but was grounded until further notice because of his mistake. He later confronted Dylan and got punched in the face but told his boss that the floor was slippery rather than reporting an assault charge. He later on picked up Director David and flew to the moon where a ship that got shot down was located at. Jake then collected the item that was founded and retreated to Area 51 where he later joined Dylans squadron in attacking the alien queens ship. During the battle the queens ship was too heavily defended so Jake proposes the idea about leading the squadron into the queens ship but the Queen knew they were coming and unleashed an EMP attack that caused the fighters and bombers engine failure. Jake told command to detonate the bombs and told Patricia that he loved her but the bombs were contained in an energy shield. Jake later woke up after being ejected from his fighter and reunites with Charlie, Dylan and Rain and stole some fighters and escaped the queens ship to attack the alien queen who got the sphere from Area 51. After using cold fusion drives to escape the queens control over their stolen fighters they shot the queens back nonstop(The aliens weak points are on their backs) and killed the queen thus saving the world. After their fighters crashed landed Patricia thought an alien monster is coming out so she shot him but learned it was Jake that came out and the two embrace each other with a hug.
