When I was younger I watched this on the TV, early 2000's. An animated film about guys with guns living in a world with these orange entities everywhere trying to kill them, it has one of those cool scenes where the token black guy blows himself up to kill the big bad guy, it's been on my mind for years, help?

IMDb synopsis:
In the year 2065, the next great assault against an invading race of phantom-like aliens is about to be launched. Dr. Aki Ross, a brilliant young scientist, races to find the invaders' secrets to save not only the planet but also herself after her body is infected by alien particles. She teams up with the prestigious Deep Eyes military squadron, led by her old friend Grey Edwards. But, as Aki, her mentor Dr. Sid, and Grey work toward a peaceful end, the scheming General Hein devises a plot to eradicate the aliens in one swift, destructive blow~even if it destroys Earth right along with them.

I'm happy I could help! This is one of the few CGI-animated films I truly admire.
