Have not been able to find a picture of those. They are just listed under bazookas as m23 24 tube launchers later standardized as t66.
I like looking for these kind of things so I still might find some.
Your right though the 105 will be your best choice if he ever has them in stock.
I still hope he comes up with the 75mm towed gun.

I did find a picture of the M66 rocket launcher that was used during ww2. Very late development who's combat usage was very limited. At least once in eastern Europe but mostly by the Marines who mainly used them in Korea . Fired a fin stabilized rocket that had good range ( over 2000 yds. and was accurate ) Was never vehicle mounted as far as I can tell from reading source material.

I have this yet to be built. I don't know if this is what you're after however. It's a Verlinden kit.
