Agreed, M2A3 was M2A2 with rear bogies further back so not discernible from this view, AFAIK.

Isn't this the "Mae West" model with the, uhhh...prominent "huge tracts of land" turrets? I think Ft. Knox had one of these, and that I saw the one at APG just being completed when I visited with BobS. Have some nice pics of that one here at home.

Yup, this is what is, or was, at Knox. I think the M2A2 and M2A3 are pretty close as far as looks go.

Cupola on M2A2 50cal turret was rounded not angular.
