The M2A3 version, like the previous version M2A2, had two single-seat machine gun turrets. However, the hull underwent a number of changes in order to improve engine access and improve cooling. The running gear was slightly modified, which improved ground clearance. The turrets have been moved slightly apart, resulting in improved ride stability. After good experience with the new synchromesh gearbox in later M2A2, this gearbox was also built into the M2A3, but the gearing was slightly modified. (In the last M2A3 pieces, an automatic transmission was tried for a change.) The engine had already settled on the Continental W-670-9 for this version. (Previous versions had dabbled with several evolutionary variations of the Continental W-670 engine) Compared to the previous version, the ammunition supply had changed, with 1,579 rounds carried for the M2HB 12.7mm machine gun and 2,730 rounds carried for the two M1919A4 7.62mm machine guns. Other parameters were more or less the same as M2A2. This type also had a number of developmental subversions, which served to validate new technical solutions.
