The BR issue of the Mirage 4000

The Kurnass has access to Python 3s

Magic 2 is superior to Python 3.

Thats not possible.

By the time MICA missiles production started Mirage4000 project was already cancelled.

Yes there’s a full 1.0 BR difference between the two planes. You stated the plane is completely outclassed, with access to Python 3s I would have to disagree.

If i had to take a guess they were developed along side each other, the 4K being in the mid to late '70s and the MICA starting in the early '80s. I can only assume it was planned to be mounted to the 4K, if i remember correctly there were pictures of the weapons section from the 4K’s manual showing the 3 rack pylons for the MICA. I doubt it will get MICA’s but it would be nice to see a fully developed 4K in game.

And the su25 couldn’t carry R60MKs. Gaijin gave it to it to make the plane viable. It could carry R73s but they were the only all aspect missiles. So it’s not impossible that the Mirage 4000 shouldn’t carry micas as if the plane was continued it would have. Same with the Milan how the Dassault website said if the plane had been continued it would have received magic 1s and maybe some countermeasures. Obviously in real time you are right but what I’m saying is if gaijin will give su25 missiles it couldn’t carry I don’t see why they should let the Mirage 4000 or Milan fall back and suffer in AMRAAM spam when realistically if left for 5 years would have been made compatible.

What were you saying?

Su-25’s are perfectly capable of carrying R-60M models.

Yea unlike Su-25’s Mirage4000 was already cancelled before MICA production, there is not single pyhsical evidence that shows Mirage4k could carry MICA missiles.

You’re comparing Apple to Orange buddy.

Supposedly there were plans for compatible racks with future advanced missiles. Heavy emphasis on supposedly. Wouldn’t be the most accurate thing in the world, but yak 141 exists so.

There were 8 years between cancelling the Mirage project and MICA’s service date.

They might considered this option but its clear as a day that the idea was in very early stage at those times, as much as i dont like the addition of Yak-41 at least its armament options was already in service and there were mockup designs.

Even with MICA missiles Mirage4K will suffer at top tier due to lacking HMD and bein stuck with HDN radar.

Best solution would be decreasing the Mirage Br.

damn this aged badly now that it’s 13.0
