Function

As a Zailiner, the vehicle exists to upgrade a Shinkalion Z unit's arms. Its Weapon Mode follows the same layout as Zailiner 323 Osaka Kanjyo: the central frame splits into a mismatched pair of limbs, while the nose, chassis, and most of the roof come together as the μSky Shield. Linking with Shinkalion 500 TYPE EVA produces the upgraded combination Shinkalion Z 500 μSky TYPE EVA.
