Mirage 2000 Thread : Variants, performance, characteristics and sources

Nice ! That’s a good start.
Finally high altitude bombing is a bit more bearable for sim. Still not enough, the HUD CCRP is really needed for sufficient precision tho

Yep, the HUD display is going to be necessary. I’ve done a few drops in the sim and it’s particularly complicated. It’s doable with a joystick, but for keyboard and mouse players it’s practically impossible.

Where’s the HMD Display lol, we still retain Soviet-style HMS.

not HMD but HUD. A HUD is the screen glass in front of the pilot

Of course, what I mean, the update on HUD is pretty good ngl, but I wish they also fix the HMD which is still placeholder since its release day.

Can someone kindly point me at an up to date guide for the 2000C S-5 that is still relevant in 2026?
This thing is utterly useless… it just doesn’t have the armament to compete.

Nothing I’ve tried comes even remotely close to working… it’s fast and maneuverable, but it might as well be armed with harsh language.

1 answer: BR compression
before all of the premimum flankers, the C S-5 was pretty decent even though your loadout is pretty limited. but after the 13.3 premimum spam, basaically 12.3-13.3 has become a nightmare for planes without Fox-3s.

Aye, it gets out ranged by literally everything it faces… I’ve never given up on something before spading it but I’m getting very close. I’ve been killed in 18 out of my last 20 games while only managing 2 or 3 kills, scrapping a 38% win rate… it’s just fodder.

Either I spend the entire match dodging f3’s or I play so cautiously that I never get close enough to shoot… but still end up getting clapped. On the rare occasion I do get a shot off it takes 3-4 missiles to actually hit something.

To be honest the plane is really good in air sim, the maw allow to play at high altitude without risk of being shot down by IR missiles

In air rb, its a 12.3 plane fighting at 12.7. Unfortunately it’s no longer at the sweet spot of a good BR like it used to be in.

Time to 50 000ft, mach 2 for the Mirage 4000 : Community Bug Reporting System
The Mirage 4000 should be able to reach these conditions in 3 minutes. Currently it barely reached 50 000ft (15km) in 3 minutes, let alone at Mach 2.
Thanks @Mulatu_Astatke and @Macron-Spokesman for the source

follow up with a very small report on the max mach speed of the Mirage 4000 : Community Bug Reporting System
If they fix the supersonic issues (currently takes more than 10 minutes to reach Mach 2, 15km instead of 3), it might help a bit

I hadn’t flown the Mirage 2000-5F since the bracket changes in the sim, and I have to say it’s stupid; the plane is simply superior to all the others. (This is also helped by the number of players in these BRs who are beginners and play with premium aircrafts)

Spoiler

To be precise, I’m using a “realistic” loadout for the plane (4 mica + 2 magic).

That’d turn the M4K into a Eurofighter at 13.0. Gib please

Then, do the yak 141 treatment and give it MICA EM (up to 14) and it’d be an absolute monster

Who wants more Mirage 2000 ?

I am here today to once again proclaim my love for the M2K. I only have 1 of them which is the M2000C-S4 that I grinded a tonne for in its event.

I had never flown a M2K before that so I decided to keep it to see what it was like. Boy Howdy this thing and its playstyle fit me like a glove. Just now again I put up another Ace. (mind you I am not really a good pilot in this game)

F4E got a simple Magic2 deathstick in his exhaust pipes, F4EJ lost the missile joust with his AIM7 against my 530D.

Then I outran some F18s that were chasing me.

I made a chasing KfirC7 overshoot and took him one circle from which be bailed and pulled up. Another Magic 2 “I simply win these” no skill shot was achieved because IRCCM cares not for your flares.

Then a MIg23ML became acquainted with the concept of radar gunsight guided DEFA shells and he exploded.

Finally energy trapped an F5E and a J8. I took the wings off the latter with more DEFA rounds.

Genuinely, it is the plane that allows a mediocre pilot like me to pull this off.
Its plenty fast, maneuvers like a dream, the 530Ds are excellent, the Magic 2s are monstrous and the DEFAS work pretty dang well.

I believe in M2K supremacy

The Mirage 2000 is indeed, and according to my completely objective opinion, the best plane in the game. I don’t know if you have it, but I really hope that one day you’ll have the opportunity to play the Mirage 2000-5F in simulation mode because it’s the best possible gameplay experience; it’s really the game mode that brings out the full potential of the aircraft.
