it was intended for both market as with every Dassault aircrafts since Ouragan (so it’s not a reason for F.1-MF2000 to be TT as it never been serviced by any French Armed organizations while Mirage 4000 was a DGA aircraft for 10 years)
i doubt we’re going to have such detailed recent and used weapon
Probably not anytime soon. I also don’t expect to see Mirage F.1 MF2000 until rank 9-10 comes.
It was a private venture of Dassault, the french government was only interested by the 2000 initially. Later on they were interested if the aircraft was successful in the export maket, but unfortunately it failed to get any contract, especially because it was not initially buyed and serviced by the French air force.
So it was at first intended as an export aircraft.
Also, the RDY-3 radar on the Mirage F.1 MF2000 is quite a bit better than the original RDY. The RDY-3 has automatic antenna scanning so it can scan the whole elevation without you having to point the nose of the plane and also has synthetic aperture resolution. So it would be quite good in BVR.
I might expect in first major update gajin recall Magic II with IRCCM in the game is Magic II Mk.2
I expect another Multirole strike aircraft 2 Mirage 2000D at 12.0 ~ 12.7 BR in rank 8 after Mirage 2000D-R1
How do we know this, I think I missed it
Because a report has been made about it and forwarded to dev and France wouldn’t be the only country to benefit from it
Don’t expect too much,… maybe an D-R2, with MICA-IR but that’s pretty all
Hey.
We dont plan any loadout changes for the time being. Just a general expansion across the current top aircraft to space them out some more for 10.7 - 11.3s. The aircraft wont be facing new opponents right now. Just it wont face 10.7s anymore at all.
The new changes will be monitored for any issues and decisions made at that stage on changes required.

At least Mirage 2000D-R2 better Mirage 2000D-R1, equipped 3rd generation targeting pod Thales Damocles and armed AASM-Hammer & Apache anti-runway Missile
As we know gaijin, i do think it will come sooner that we think, because of what’s left to be added in Rank 8 before the Rafale, and the possible Rank 9 that can come with it :
-
Mirage 2000D RMV : a good candidate for this year, it can get Magic 2 while waiting for the MICA IR, and can also take a smaller 30mm gun pod that is not using a GBU hardpoints.
-
Mirage F1 MF2000 : a good candidate for this year, it can be introduced as soon as the MICA will be.
-
Mirage 2000D-R2 : unlikely, it would be too redundant with the RMV for the ground pounding capabilities and can’t get either the new 30mm gunpod that carry the RMV or the MICA IR.
-
Mirage 2000C S3 (early or late) : unlikely, it would be a filler in the tech tree. It can come as a premium or squadron vehicle, but not as an event one because of the S4, it would be too redundant.
-
Mirage 2000-9 : very unlikely, it would be a copy paste of the current 2000-5F, that should not have got the ground attack weaponry.
-
Mirage 2000B S5 : very unlikely, a plane without a gun is always a hell to fly, and it would also be a filler.
-
Mirage 2000EG : not for the tech tree, maybe as a premium but it would not be my best bet. (i’ve chosen the greek 2000 because of the RDM-3 radar and Super 530D missile)
I’m expecting to see at least 4 French high tier jets for this year, like 2023 (2000-5, Super étendard, 4000, 2000C-S4 ), with a maximum of 6 like 2022 (F1C, F1CT, F1C-200, Jaguar E, 2000C-S5, 2000D).
With a budget of 4 planes for the year, we can easily fit inside the 2000D RMV and the F1 MF2000 between march and october updates, then a premium 2000 with rank 9 and the Rafale M F.1 for december : It would be my bet if i would have to guess the program for the year.
If the Rafale and/or the rank 8 premium is not coming, we can replace theses by a filler

a general expension?
then M2000CS4 should follow up,… no reason for such change if you do not include an aircraft that is completely similar,…
and : where is my fuel tank for Mirage CS5? since CS4 have it, it’s really sad.
R2 would feature:
MAWS
GPS Paveways
Damocles
That itself would be enough to warrant bringing it into the game honestly.
Then add RMV with Talios targeting pod and MICA IR.

there is 2 variants of greek mirage.
the one Mirage C-S3 with RDM-3 → 2000EG
the one Mirage 2000-5F with RDY → 2000EG “-5 mk2” (10 renovated from old, and 10 new), capable of MICA aswell
At least for Mirage F1C since it served for a shorter time than CT

I know, and you should also know that the 2000EG is not a 2000C-S3 with RDM-3, because the S3 is still using the M53-5 engine where the 2000EG is using the M53-P2, this is a major difference. it’s closer to a 2000C-S5 with RDM-3 radar than a S3
