Mirage 2000 Thread : Variants, performance, characteristics and sources

Super 530D seems to approach reliability levels of Super 530F…

Could you please tell me from which version the Mirage 2000D started using PGM guided bombs? Was it DR1, DR2, or RMV?

was a single seater uae mirage 2000

also these images, idk what there context is tho

whats that pod on the left of the belly?

So does that mean the French Air Force has never used PGM guided bombs on the Mirage 2000D platform?

for the bottom image i could only assume its maybe an ECM or datalink pod.

combat training pod maybe?

France didn’t use these bomb at all. PGMs used in Britain and UAE

So it’s impossible for France to have fire-and-forget air-to-ground weapons in ground battles with a BR of 10.0-11.3?

I think the Armement Air-Sol Modulaire family of munitions has fire and forget variants with IIR. I believe it can be mounted on the Rafale and more modern variants of the Mirage 2000D

i just honestly hate it

Mirage 2000-5f has complitely unrealistic loadout for french air force (French never used A2G weaponary on their 5’s and 5 computer can only operate up to 6 missiles [im refering to the brochure, which states 6 a2a missiles])

if they would have historically correct (to my knowledge) 5f, then mirage 2000D r1 and potential of R2 would make sense, R2 gives an access to the side mounted gun pod

access to the AASM Hammer INS/GPS (and potentially ir and laser version aswell)

etc.

5f not having a2g weaponary would also make sense for the future of the french tech tree progression imo, where we could just have a rafale with both fox 3’s and a2g munitions compared because if rafale would come in current state of 5f it would be just a more manouverable m2k5f (with early variants, again, not having a2g to my knowledge

But gaijiob is gaijiob
(also i might be just wrong and it would turn out that french used a2g on their 5f, but i dont belive that was the case at the moment of writing this, correct me if im wrong)

the 5F MKII could theoretically carry A-G, so the one in game is probably a MK II if i had to take a guess.

5 mk2 is a two seater, and not in use by french air force afaik, it also included RDY-2 radar set instead of RDY, which is like 15% air 2 air performance increase

thats something to take into mind

when do we think the 2K will get proper MFD’s. Would be so nice for sim gameplay.

Hey can anyone refresh the link of Mirage 2000 compiled sources? It seems the link is dead.

i wonder how that bug report went…

ah yes, the fact that some unknown mirage 2000 can carry a magic II pylon on the s530d slot means m2k5f can carry 8 missiles :clueless:

(it was definetly not trickzzter who responded with that SS)
