I know this is an old post, but has anyone looked at the Airfix/MPC 1/24 scale Harrier? That kit was used to build the AT-AT and other items, stands to reason the rocket pod from that kit might have been used to build Boba's gauntlet rocket as well.
The shapes are just too far off to be a model part, plus we have seen CAD drawings where they are designing the rocket to be machined.
BTW, I want to retouch on those who were thinking they were not seeing the red in my previous photo. Here are some new photos. I don't think you can deny the red... now the question is, is that just paint on top, or is that the base color of the piece. Given the wear on the back edge, I feel like it means the base part is red.

Wow im gonna need to make mine more correct copper color orange under it is what Im seeing here
Sorry, I can't see color very well. I am being told what I am calling "red" is actually "orange."
He means the orange colour that's seen like chips under the weathering.

i been looking for something that looks like the heads of the 9MM, and than read a part about that helicopter parts and found a website around it ... those pieces are really small: http://www.modelbrouwers.nl/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?t=24381&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight= (this site is in Dutch, but a lot of pictures)
but if the model kit exist in a larger version than it would be something that could be used.

Holy thread revival!
A lot of searching and research went into this thread a few years back. While the missile pod has a similar shape, it doesnt have the 3 rows of holes like the gauntlet missile. Also, in my talks with RKD, I believe he said there was paperwork recovered/ found commissioning a machined metal missile.
