Mirage 2000 Thread : Variants, performance, characteristics and sources

Hello,

None of this is 100% confirmed, but we know the following;
Overload increase to 50G.
Guidance delay reduced to 0.2s or less (likely 0.15, similar to R-73).
Proximity fuse activation time reduced to 1.2s or less.
Seeker lock-on range increased slightly.
IRCCM improved (reduced gateWidth FoV, as well as the same flare decoy rejection as AIM-9M).
Currently FoV is same as R-73 (0.75 degrees). Should be reduced to ~0.46 if I recall.

Not to mention currently it only does 35G at approximately 2 mach missile speed, it should be able to do the full 50G at just 1.25 mach (off the rail if flying at 1.25 mach ASL).

I might be missing a few more things, but I think that’s all we can “prove” for now. Investigating burn time further at the moment.

Is there a source to supporto the 50G claim

1547

The same source as these reports;

Although I did not do these reports. I only did the IRCCM reports, and my sources are attached;

The magic 2 incorporated new sensors and guidance system that allows the missile not only to stabilize itself in roll, but to do so in relation to target vector. This allows it to maintain the combined plane angle to maneuver towards target at all times.

I think your original report also mentioned the missile being able to track against the sun.

1549

I couldn’t find solid evidence of this, only that it has some degree of resistance to the sun (we don’t know how much). The minimum distance to the sun angle might be reduced if we make mention of it, but I don’t think it has 100% impunity against the solar radiation.

What about the guidance delay and proxy activation.
Is there a report on these?

1551

I’ve been told it was internally reported already when I inquired… hence why I haven’t made my own report.

1552

At least some sources have been provided to mods ot they have sources about it

1553

So when a report has a name but no hypertext link its basically an internal report yes?

1554

I hope they approve those Infos on the magic 2, instead of leaving It behind, like they did with the Red tops and the sraam.

Tech moderators sometimes make their own reports, so in these cases if I also make the same report it’s simply marked “duplicate”… and there is no need for us to do that if it’s already internally acknowledged and on the to-do list…

Tech moderators essentially directly forward their own reports, it’s not necessary for them to submit it on the community site.

1556

Have they fixed the radar yet?

1557

No, but they gave M2K the ability to slew radar with the HMS on dev server I think

1558

Isn’t the ability to lock the radar with HMS kind of a mute feature on a broken radar? I lose lock to the most simple of maneuvers, like an aileron roll :^/

1559

I not such issues with the 5f, the tws hdn gives you pretty solid lock same as the pd hdn and the regular pd mode, the regular pd mode i normally just use it with the hms

1560

It seems they corrected the proxy fuse issue of AA missiles

1561

Here’s why

Anything happened to the Mirage since patch drop? Just getting back into playing it again and I love it. Those magics are a little short range still though imo.

1563

More flares, new motor and increased track rate for magic 2 and an over all drag reduction tò all magics.

I was just thinking about the CM count but was not sure if that was new. Amazing thanks.
