Thanks i know…
never hurt to be too carefull lol
btw, what about the Mirage G?
Would be interesting, but still underperfoming to Mirage 2000C-S5.
i presume it would be a counterpart to the su 24, f111 etc
MiG-23 MLD’s radar is more reliable than Mirage 2000C radar
Edit : R24R is 10 times better than 530D
They benefit from bias nothing new here
Mirage G still is a Fighter

Reported the proxy fuze bug since no one else seems to have done that

Magic has an activation time, that seemed like a little bit of a close shot for the fuse to activate?
Checked the video without slow-mo, 1.96 seconds from launch to when it should have proxied. What’s the arming time?
1.8s

While mirage V was a side grade of the mirage 3 the mirage F1C was an upgrade over the mirage 3 family (with a lot of things in common, most change were made in order to reduce take off speed)
However 2000 has pretty much nothing in common with other mirage delta wing: only the general design is similar. The 2000 was unstable, fitted with electrical command (FBW), use a low bypass turbofans and so on, new wings system
It is a common mistake to consider that the 2000 is an upgraded mirage 3

Congrats… arming time is still 1.8s…
If I’m pointing out that the missile took 1.97s from launch to the target, am I :
A - Arguing with you that the arming time you gave is wrong?
B - Showing that this is a proxy fuze issue and not an arming time issue?

Thing is arming time of warhead starts when proxy triggers. When you launch the missile warhead isn’t activated after you launch otherwise you’d risk killing yoself so as i see in this scenario the proxy fuse as the missile approached the plane must have started the countdown but anyway it had been flared so if anything considering where the missile might have gone after being flared it should have explosed near you and maybe hurting/killing you so in this peculiar case be happy. Also it does seem that a flared missile gets its proxy fuze delay rested as yeah it should have kill the plane but last moment the missile was flared and if my theory is right this is what caused you to miss the kill not the delay itself.
You can see the shining of the rocket motor on the wing…
Flares were not the issue here I’d say.
I’ve had R-60M flying right past aircraft that did not deploy countermeasures while I was close enough for rendering not to be an issue.
