This article is about a fictional weapon from the Cosmic Era timeline of the anime Gundam metaseries.

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.

The design is further developed after the end of the Bloody Valentine War into the TFA-4DE GAZuOOT, with a change of configuration replacing the hands with triple-barreled cannons and adding forearm-mounted missile launchers for extra firepower. In addition, the conventional shell-firing cannons of the ZuOOT were replaced with high-powered beam cannons. In addition to terrestrial artillery support, some GAZuOOTs are used for interior PLANT defense at Armory One and other ZAFT facilities.
