M113A3 on both sides of the rear ramp, freeing up more internal space. An improved version of the 6V53T turbo-diesel engine with power increased to 350 hp (261 kW) is installed, along with an improved '4B' version of the TX-400 automatic transmission. The new vehicle has a maximum capacity of seven personnel: driver, vehicle commander and up to five staff officers or system operators, and can be configured as a Fire Direction Centre Vehicle. Limited in numbers and used as the basis for the M577A4 armored treatment vehicle.

2327:. The APU, normally attached to the front of the upper hull to the right of the driver, was removed. At the rear the cargo ramp was replaced with two sealed "suit ports", attached to each was a HAZMAT suit so that personnel could enter and exit the vehicle without being exposed to the hazardous materials. In addition to the vehicle's driver and commander, the rear cargo/personnel area was fitted with seating and workstations for four operators. On the roof of the upper hull was a "robotic miniature helicopter" (i.e. a 1615: 507: 1775: 1366: 2051: 1822: 2175: 2087: 692: 491: 2010: 2197: 2029: 1739: 1952: 1757: 2293: 1457: 1992: 1286:

plate installed under each sponson for the first three road wheels on each side of the vehicle. In 1970, a further 38 mm of aluminum armor was fitted along the entire bottom of the hull, which greatly reduced crew and passenger casualties even from large mines. This armor upgrade package was subsequently fitted to all M577s (and other M113 vehicles) purchased to replace those lost during the war.

The MCPS tent has the advantage of being quicker and easier to erect and dismantle, provides overhead lighting and power sockets for electrical equipment, and the modular design of MCPS allows more tents to be easily connected. 2109: 1840: 2134: 700: 1808: 2215: 2152: 520:

On the roof, the commander's cupola of the M113 APC has been replaced with circular hatch similar to the driver's hatch, and the large rectangular hatch over the troop compartment was removed. There is no external weapons stations fitted to the M577, although most vehicles were fitted with an internal rifle rack.

1816:: in 2015 Brazil negotiated with the U.S. through the Foreign Military Sales program the purchase of up to 200 surplus M577A2 vehicles. As at October 2018, 124 vehicles have been delivered. In September 2020, the U.S. donated a further 20 vehicles. The vehicles will operate in the roles of ambulance, command centre and communications. 1728: 454:

Communication suites were originally analogue, but with the introduction of the M577A3 and A4, have mostly been upgraded to digital. Analogue radio sets fitted to the M577 in U.S. service include: 1289:

In Australian service the M577A1 ACV was originally fitted with both U.S. and British radio sets, reflecting the dual origins of their pieces of major equipment. Vehicles would normally carry up to five sets e.g. three AN/GRC-125, one AN/VRC-49 and one AN/GRC-106. AS-1729/VRC antennae were mounted on

Under Land 106, all vehicles from the M113 family in Australian service were redesignated as either an M113AS3 or, if fitted with a stretched 6-axle chassis, M113AS4, with a two to four character suffix designating specific variants; this included the M125A1 Armourmed Mortar Carrier (redesignated as

From 2001, the Diehl 213G steel tracks were replaced by Soucy rubber band tracks for quieter operation on roads and better operation on snow and ice.

Based on the M577A3 command post vehicle, 23 vehicles were in service with the Canadian Army. Nicknamed the 'Queen Mary', the vehicle is equipped with an upgraded communications suite.

The single 80 gallon internal fuel tank of the M113, located at the rear left, is replaced by two 60 gallon tanks, located each side near the rear, providing a greater operating range than a M113. They also serve as the base for fold-out tables. Radios are usually fitted along the left wall, as well

The results of all tests were generally positive, and the vehicle went into immediate production. The first batch of 270 vehicles were accepted into U.S. Army service between in December 1962 and March 1963. In March 1963 under Standard A Acceptance the XM577 was redesignated as the M577, indicating

Between June 2002 and September 2012, under the M113 major upgrade project, 43 M577A1 armored command vehicles and 15 M577A1 armored ambulances were upgraded and re-designated the M113AS3 armored command vehicles

In 1979, further upgrades were introduced based on the M113A2. Engine cooling was improved by switching the locations of the fan and radiator. Higher-strength torsion bars increased ground clearance, and shock absorbers reduced the effects of ground strikes. Increased weight affected the vehicle's

Vehicles are equipped with additional radio sets as found in a standard M113 APC, to provide command and control facilities across the unit (e.g. battalion) and coordinate with other units and higher levels of command (e.g. regimental HQ). Removable antenna masts are usually carried and attached to

The M577 shares the chassis, lower hull and running gear from the M113 upon which it is based. The hull sides from the engine firewall to the rear cargo ramp were extended by 25.25 in (64 cm) for a maximum headroom in the rear compartment of 74.75 in (190 cm), allowing operators

The first four prototypes were built in February 1962 by United Defense Industries at the U.S. Army's Detroit Arsenal. They were designated the XM577, and were conversions of M113 APCs. Upon completion in March 1962 the first vehicle was shipped to the Aberdeen Proving Ground for engineering tests,

Whereas tanks and armored cars offered a level of protection against weapons fire, they usually did not provide sufficient internal room to permit the extra personnel needed to operate all the radio sets. Lightly or unarmed vehicles could be used to transport temporary structures (e.g. tents) that

The Australian Army also operated a number of M577A1 armored ambulances, which effectively serve as both emergency treatment and evacuation vehicles. As part of the M113 major upgrade project, 15 of these vehicles were converted to a similar AS3 standard as the ACV and redesignated as the M113AS3

A 5-man bench seat could be fitted to either or both sides of the rear compartment, although in some vehicles no seating was fitted whatsoever. The rearward-facing seat on the commander's station was removed. For the M1068, inward-facing individual seats for two operators replaced the bench seat.

M113-based vehicles in Canadian service previously used the base designation LAV-T for "light armored vehicle, tracked", and the M577A2 command post vehicle was the LAV-T/CP. As a result of the M113 life extension project (implemented 1 April 2000 to 31 March 2007), in which the vehicles were

approximately two-thirds of the U.S. Army's inventory of M577A2 vehicles were fitted with the new army tactical command and control system (ATCCS) and redesignated as the M1068. Externally, the new vehicles are identical to the M577 but featured many internal changes, including:
