Compared to earlier versions, changes included a modern FLIR infrared system in an elongated nose, updated avionics, countermeasures against surface-to-air missiles, and improved communication systems, enabling effective reconnaissance and attack missions in both day and night operations.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The \u003cb\u003eICM 72186\u003c\/b\u003e model features a wealth of details, including the modified fuselage silhouette and characteristic equipment of the OV-10D+ variant.
