Small Scale Military Headquarters

I've tried and found no answer to this question: What are the weapon pods that come with the MH6 that has two large circular openings in the front and two cylindrical "vents" in the back? I can't find anything online that lists or depicts such a weapon in the real world.

Those are twin TOW missile tubes. That particular configuration is most commonly seen on the for-export Defender series of MD500 helicopter intended for sales to other countries.

I think...

Thanks! With that clue, I finally found a (visual) reference:

So far, that' the only image I've been able to find. Strange that BBI would make such an unusual weapon system for their bird ...
