I assumed as much, just thought it was silly :>

The jammer for the Mirage 2000 is found on the back of the aircraft.

The red area should be the only RWR dead-zone for the Mirage 2000 family.

Michael-IR · September 11, 2024, 8:59pm

what about below the aircraft tho?

I already covered that with the omni-directional antenna in the posts above.

Just pointing out that it changed on the 5F, also what about the one up front?

DirectSupport · September 11, 2024, 11:24pm

Explain?

The angled antenna was exchanged for this smaller one, and I’m trying to understand what’s the second one for, one closer to the radome.
Also idk why it’s not on the pic you posted

The pic I posted was of a twin-seater Mirage 2000-5F which I’m not sure why it didn’t have it. You can tell it is a Mirage 2000-5F Mk2 due to RDY written on the side of it. For the antenna closer to the radome, I’ve been told it is an extra communication antenna, sources just write “new blade aerials” when referring to it.

Interesting photos of loaded M2K-5F’s

If anyone is interested, I have some books on the Mirage 2000 that I’d gladly share. Just PM me.

Guys i know this is not the correct place but has anyone know why 400Kg bombs on Jaguar E doing less damage than 250kg’s to enemy bases?

Armen_Lozone · September 21, 2024, 5:29pm

Are you on the FTTR (French tech tree) discord ? Tot look for sources about French equipment, it should be the best place

Sakyuz · September 26, 2024, 12:54am

Been having issues with MICA lately, ‘hitting’ people for zero damage. Turns out the warhead is 1/2 the size of the AIM-120, but the proximity fuse is identical. No wonder this keeps happening. The missile needs a proximity fuse copied from the AIM-9D/C (similar warhead explosive mass), instead of AIM-120 (2x MICA explosive mass). Or the warhead is wrong, which also might be possible.

Prof_LOGIC22 · September 29, 2024, 8:50pm

it also still doesnt have a directional warhead either iirc.

MiG_23M · September 29, 2024, 10:17pm

Warhead should detonate when it is at the calculated closest distance from target or if target begins to travel away - no further than the proximity radius. This is how it was described as functioning to me by a tech mod.

I do not know if this is actually how it is functioning in-game or not.
