The differences between M2 and M3 are subtle.
For example, the M3 CFV has no firing ports in the rear hull, but also has more spare TOW rockets and other ammunition stores.
After the Gulf War, the IFV was converted into the M2A2 ODS. This "Operation Desert Storm" variant featured a laser range finder, a tactical navigation system, a driver thermal imaging camera, a missile defense device and a Force XXI Battle Command Brigade and Below system.
In the course of Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine, the USA supplied this version.
