One of the main weapon of Gouf-type mobile suits is the right-arm mounted heat rod. However, this retractable close combat weapon was removed in the Gouf Heavy Arms Type, with both hands were replaced with heavy five-barrel 85mm machine guns fed by larger capacity ammunition magazines. Spare ammunition magazines were stored on the hip skirt armor. To supplement its weaponry and provide better close combat protection, the Gouf Heavy Arms Type also featured a single 30mm machine gun mounted in its forehead. However, all of these new weapons and ammunition increased the Gouf Heavy Arms Types weight, so extra thrusters were added to the legs to compensate for the additional weight.

The Principality of Zeon began producing a few mission specific variations of the Gouf, one of them being the MS-07C-3 Gouf Heavy Arms Type. The Gouf Heavy Arms Type was designed as a replacement for the Principality of Zeon's aging squads of MS-06J Zaku IIs, the new MS-07 Gouf proved to be at a severe disadvantage in ranged situations due to its lack of armaments. Only a few Gouf Heavy Arms Types that were developed and were deployed mainly in continental Europe.
