I just did a huge update on Prime Portal.

I added new OIF pictures of:
M113
M88
M1078
Damaged M1078s
M9 ACE
Patriot Missile Batteries
M2 Bradleys
M2 Bradley with AP damage

Also there are 2 new walk arounds of the M35A3 and the M35A3 Long Box.

For ease, hit the What's New Link.

Enjoy and let me know if you have any problems.

The first picture looks like someone knocked the TOW turret off a M901 the Iraqis captured from Kuwait.

What is the hatch on the side of the M113 for?

This actually is not M113, but M58 Wolf Smoke Generator System and the side hatch is access panel for smoke generator.

Is the second picture in the first group of M113 OIF pictures the one you are talking about?

Great! That M58 is just what I'm modelling at this very moment.
