Custom Dioramics also sold a 1/48th scale ceramic revetment kit based on the ConTech Bin-Wall style structure.

Your link is for the "Bin Wall" revetments made IRL by ConTec and are a Vietnam era structure. Nice to see though. Will have to acquire a set or three for my own aspirations.

If there is no other choice for such an item you might want to consider the AFV Club 1/35th scale Berlin Wall Section kit that contains three sort of upside down "T" sections. There are three entries at ScaleMates for Berlin Walls in 1:35 scale: AFV Club - 35318 - 1:35 - Berlin Wall (3 Pieces) Alternity Miniatures Sceneies Series - AM54 - 1:35 - Damaged Berlin Wall This looks like it is based on the AFV Club kit.

What are your top 5 dream model kits?
jeffryfontaine replied to CorsairMan's topic in General Discussion
1/48th scale North American AJ (A-2) Savage. Maybe something that Special Hobby could take on? They certainly did a great service to the Grumman AF Guardian in 1/48th scale. -
LF: 1/48 suu-21 practice bomb dispenser
jeffryfontaine replied to longmc's topic in Buy and sell - add scale to your title
There was another SUU-21 available years ago in the ancient ESCI 1/48th scale F-104 Starfighter kit. It was a very primitive looking SUU-21 with open / exposed stores in the bottom half. -
Is this conversion still available?
-
That same type of stores carrier was also available in the ESCI 1/48th scale Jaguar GR.1 kits.

1/72 French Rocket Pods for Mirage, Jaguar?

1/72 French Rocket Pods for Mirage, Jaguar?
jeffryfontaine replied to Andrew D. the Jolly Rogers guy's topic in Jet Modeling
The research hole deepens once again. From what I was reading in the link to the Wikipedia page the pod can have a frangible fairing on the nose (that the rockets shoot through) or a series of openings (one for each rocket). Adding to that is that there is one version that is disposable and the other version that is retained for re-use. Then there is the size of the rocket projectiles to add to the problem. Not sure if Libya was using the 68mm SNEB or one of the smaller diameter rockets since both types share a common container.
