However, the thick armor of the Gustav was able to protect the <a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Zoid%20Core%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Zoid%20Core%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BZoid%20Core%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="4830-13625489475df53ab87b50d" href="/wiki/Zoid_Core" title="Zoid Core">Zoid Core</a>, allowing the Zoid to be rebuilt. For the rest of the series, however, one segment of the Gustav's shell is white, implying the spare part came from a standard Gustav.
</p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">Moonbay's Gustav is also shown to be armed, with a pair of stubby, forward-mounted cannons hidden behind a panel above the cockpit. This is likely to be a personal modification, as no other Gustav shown in the anime has been armed. (Incidentally, this would be a difficult modification to make on the model, as that panel holds the shell together.)
</p><p data-rte-fromparser="true" data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">Several other Gustavs are seen in use by the Republican and Imperial militaries. These are distinguished from Moonbay's Zoid by the use of the white-and-green OJR color scheme. They are further distinguished from Republican to Imperial by the cockpit color; orange for the Republic, green for the Empire.

<p data-rte-fromparser="true">Gustavs were used in <i><a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Zoids%3A%20New%20Century%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Zoids%3A%20New%20Century%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BZoids%3A%20New%20Century%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="4830-13625489475df53ab87b50d" href="/wiki/Zoids:_New_Century" title="Zoids: New Century">Zoids: New Century</a></i> as transports by a number of teams, most notably the Fluegel Team. Moonbay's Gustav from <i>Guardian Force</i> (right down to the white armor segment) makes a cameo appearance in the background in episode 23.

The Gustav's appearance is somewhat different from the previous shows; rather than a pair of open-topped tracked trailers, the Zoid pulls a single, large, enclosed trailer. Haldo also used a Gustav with a similar design. Sweet's Gustav followed the OJR color scheme. Haldo's Gustav was similar to the OJR as it had a white shell, but was different as it had a blue underbody.

<h4 data-rte-empty-lines-before="1">Genesis</h4>
<p data-rte-fromparser="true">Several Gustavs appeared in <i><a data-rte-meta="%7B%22type%22%3A%22internal%22%2C%22text%22%3A%22Zoids%3A%20Genesis%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22Zoids%3A%20Genesis%22%2C%22wasblank%22%3Atrue%2C%22noforce%22%3Atrue%2C%22wikitext%22%3A%22%5B%5BZoids%3A%20Genesis%5D%5D%22%7D" data-rte-instance="4830-13625489475df53ab87b50d" href="/wiki/Zoids:_Genesis" title="Zoids: Genesis">Zoids: Genesis</a></i>. They mostly carried large, box-like trailers, and were used by almost every faction. Digald's had a grey shell and maroon underbody, while the anti-Digald forces had a light blue shell and dark blue body. Yakku, a character introduced in the second half of the series, had one similar to Moonbay's seen in the previous series (though it had a vastly different cockpit interior and trailer). Zairin's unit's Gustav could be distinguished from the others because it had a symbol of a Rose wrapped around a lightning bolt on the trailer. While seen frequently, Gustavs played relatively minor roles.
