Looks a bit like the Calliope, but I don't recall seeing the panels on the sides of the launchers.

They look like the tribarrel bazooka like launch tubes found under Thunderbolts and Mustangs.  I also have never seen a pic of their use on a Sherman.

I didn't notice the tube config, but I agree with Phil that they look like the USAAF mounts.  Those also fired 4.5 rockets, which makes it curiouser & curiouser.  Also the TM photos are vastly different and more authentic I'd suggest.

Seriously expensive, but then I guess there's quite a lot of it....

And that's only the 'BASE variant'!!!!  :o

The mind boggles at the rest of it.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
