Technology & Combat Characteristics
Developed by the Asimov Design Bureau, which was responsible for the development of ZAFT's ground combat units, the BuCUE featured a unique quadrapedal, beast-like form, inspired by tanks and helicopters. The BuCUE's legs were fitted with caterpillar treads, allowing it to transform between two movement modes: the quadrapedal mode for traversing terrains with many obstacles, and the cruising mode (also known as tank mode) that can rapidly traverse flat terrains and was especially effective in areas unsuitable for walking, such as deserts and snowy plains. In addition, the thrusters on its wings allowed it to turn rapidly. As a result of its superior mobility, the BuCUE's combat ability greatly surpassed its opponent—the OMNI Enforcer's Linear Gun Tank, with a single BuCUE capable of rivaling a tank platoon. The "TMF/A" model prefix stood for "Terrestrial Maneuver Fighter/Attacker".
As the BuCUE's armor focused on the frontal direction, its abdomen armor was relatively weaker, and a single strike in that area could cause critical damage. However, the cruising mode, in which the BuCUE's four legs are folded, can be used to protect the abdomen from attacks by infantry, etc. Though the BuCUE was not equipped with any fixed weapons, its back turret was able to mount several types of armaments, including a pair of 450mm railguns for engaging tanks or a 13-tube missile pod for anti-fortification attacks. However, it was not designed with close combat in mind, and its form factor was ill-suited for close combat with enemy mobile suits. As a result, following the capture of G Weapons from Heliopolis, late production type BuCUEs were equipped with beam sabers ahead of other mobile suits.

Armaments
* MMI-M10W Twin 450mm Railgun
One of two weapons that can be mounted on the turret on the suit's back, this twin barrel railgun uses electricity to accelerate the projectiles. The projectiles are fitted with plasma warheads that can destroy a Linear Tank with a single blow. Due to the BuCUE's quadruped design, it is able to fire the railgun steadily, without worry of recoil.

* M88 13-tube 400mm Missile Pod
The other weapon that can be mounted on the turret on the suit's back, since the turret is a rotary type, the missile pod can be fired in all directions. A sensor is installed at the tip of the warheads to automatically recognize and track enemy targets.

* MA-M01W Twin Beam Saber
Mounted in the head of late production type BuCUE, these beam sabers were based on the ones used by the G Weapons as well as data collected from the YFX-200 CGUE DEEP Arms. The BuCUE was given priority deployment of these beam weapons, since its form factor and equipment meant that it would suffer in close combat against mobile suits otherwise.
