The Zaku Troopers are main soldiers of the Metal Army serving as the cannon fodder infantry. They are most numerous soldiers in history, over billions of them are produced so far. Although not the best fighters, they overwhelm their enemies in sheer numbers. In the Metal Army hierarchical system, they are a worker class.

Design
The Zaku Trooper's body is made of Denzium, a common material more durable than steel. The alloy is strong against weapon-less melee attacks and .50 cal bullets but can't withstand energy attacks such as plasma but shots from lasguns won't work on them. The body shape is the most basic and some champions are based off from the Zaku design such as the Dalek Zaku in the Metal Wars Climax.
They are one of the well known robots to have the infamous mono-eye from the Murmmington Industries robot line. The Mono-eye system was first introduced by Dr. Albert used on working machines as the main opic sensor. The system consist of a main optical sensor (main camera) mounted on a rail system so that the sensor could freely slide on the rail to increase the sensing angle so the robot could look around without turning the head. It can incorporate various visors such as the combat visor. In order to capture the distance of the objects, two pictures taken by the Mono-eye have to be processed and compared.
Their weakness are emp attacks and weapons which could kill them. The early versions are weak against water which could short circuit them until early Feburary 2008 when they become waterproof. Their other weakness is their monoeye, a shot could enter through the eye and cause extreme damage to the AI. On the plus side, they can come back to life via repairs by Mecha Bubbles, mechanical Love Bubbles with repair tools.

Trivia
- The Zaku Trooper is heavily inspired by their mobile suit counterparts in the Gundam Franchise, even the model number is simular. What makes them not official chacters in the YB universe is that they are human-sized and fully automated machines.
- Their social status is simular to a Jackal's and a Grunt's in Halo.
