Based on Musha Gundam, the Shin Musha Gundam differs from the original due to its elaborated armor design. Like the Musha Gundam, The Shin Musha is armed with powerful weapons including the Sankoumaru Jumonji Yari, a powerful spear that could pierce through tough mobile armor. Its default weapon includes the Nichirinmaru Katana and a Denkoumaru Naginata. In addition, the Shin Musha Gundam is also equipped with the Tanegashima gun for long ranged combat.
