Need help with refs for French practice bomb dispenser

[Hoops]

Good Morning!

 

I'm building the very nice Special Hobby Mirage F.1CR in 1/72, marked as one of the aircraft the visited Red Flag in 1990.

 

The pictures that I've been able to find have a practice bomb dispenser on the centerline pylon.

Also seen on this build in 1/48:

 

Since I don't speak French and Armee de l'aire is not really my realm of expertise, can somebody point me the right direction as to what the dispenser is called, or where I can find some better images of it?

 

I'll just scratch build it, but I need a bit more info that I can get out of those few distant photos.

 

Cheers and thanks!

It's an LBF2. He got his from L'Arsenal, a french aftermarket producer. http://www.larsenal.com/1-48-lbf2-container-with-exercice-bomblets-c2x15950975

That did the trick, thank you Creepy Pete.

 

It won't work to buy them from L'Aresenal as it's the wrong scale, but looking at their product gives me enough info to scratch build it in 1/72.

 

Cheers!

@Creepy PeteHere is the result of my quick LBF2 scratch build:

I was messing around with trying to do the practice bombs as well, add a nice touch of blue. Trying to do the fins was driving me nuts and not worth it, so I decided to save myself the trouble and just leave the container empty.

 

A couple of minor touch ups and the build will be complete.

 

Cheers,
