− | The '''TFA-2 ZuOOT''' is an early-model mobile suit designed for heavy ground attack. While heavily armed, the ZuOOT is far less agile than the [[TMF/A-802 BuCUE]], and is quickly relegated to a second-line artillery use in ZAFT's terrestrial arsenal, and are sometimes positioned on the outer decks of land battleships to serve as extra gun turrets. It transforms into a tracked configuration (tank mode) for stability, making it a highly accurate artillery platform. At El Alamein in May of CE 70, a ZuOOT was piloted by [[Andrew Waltfeld]]'s lieutenant [[Martin DaCosta]]. |

Template:Infobox/Mobile Weapon Ver.2The TFA-2 ZuOOT is a mobile suit in the Mobile Suit Gundam SEED series.
Technology & Combat Characteristics
Developed based on worker machines and designed for long-range ground attack, the ZuOOT is heavily armed with shell firing weapons, which consisted of two shoulder mounted 2-barrel cannons, four chest mounted vulcan guns, a 2-barrel secondary cannon mounted on the left arm, and a heavy assault machine gun can be carried in its hand. Like the ZGMF-1017 GINN, the ZuOOT's head-mounted fin contains a sensor array.
The ZuOOT can transform into a tank mode, where it moves on caterpillar treads, granting it greater stability while firing and the ability to speed across the land. Due to the suit's poor mobility and close combat capability, it is mainly used as a movable turret to provide fire support for frontline MS, like the GINN and the TMF/A-802 BuCUE. It is also positioned on the decks of land battleships to serve as extra gun turrets. When used this way, it is often in its MS mode.
