Tamiya US M2A2 ODS Infantry Fighting Vehicle (1:35 Scale)

Developed from lessons learned in the Gulf War, the M2A2 ODS (Operation Desert Storm) became a key variant of the M2 Infantry Fighting Vehicle family, later seeing front-line service in Iraq in March 2003 with units attached to the 3rd Armored Infantry Division. This 1:35 scale plastic assembly kit from Tamiya recreates the M2A2 ODS with a focus on the distinctive equipment and external fittings carried on operational vehicles.

Details include accurately replicated components such as the laser range finder, GPS antenna, rear sensors and box exhaust, plus Combat Identification Panels fitted to both sides and the rear. The kit also includes a choice of two 25mm cannons, durable-pad tracks, and extra attachments including personnel equipment such as alice packs and a sleeping bag. Markings are provided for six vehicles: three deployed to Iraq and three used on NATO operations.
