The MS-06K Zaku Cannon (Gatling Gun Equipment Type) is a variant mobile suit of the MS-06K Zaku Cannon. It was first featured in the MSV-R design series.

Technology & Combat Characteristics

The Zaku Cannon (Gatling Gun Equipment Type) is a MS-06K Zaku Cannon that has been outfitted with a 120mm gatling gun, replacing the 180mm cannon.

Armament

• 120mm Gatling Gun

The gatling gun is a medium-range weapon mounted on the Zaku for anti-air and anti-ground attacks.

• Shoulder Shield

Mounted on the right shoulder, it is a simple defense used to block most physical projectiles.

• 3-tube Missile Pod

A pair of optional 3-tube missile pods can be mounted on the legs for mid to long-range attacks.

• 120mm Machine Gun

A standard weapon for Zaku type mobile suits. It is a shell firing gun that does not require energy to be used, however its effectiveness against heavy armor is very limited. This model used a 100-round drum magazine.

• 2-tube Rocket Launcher

Also known as "Big Gun", the Zaku Cannon (Gatling Gun Equipment Type) deployed by the 7th Military Academy in Gundam Build Divers episode 7 is equipped with this weapon mounted on the bottom left of the backpack. It is magazine-fed and can fire small-caliber rockets rapidly.

Special Equipment & Features

• 2-tube Smoke Discharger

Mounted on the backpack, it releases a cloud of smoke that covers the area around the mobile suit to make it more difficult for enemies to target.
