In South Africa, they countered the communism forces of Angola and Cuba with extreme eficiency helping defend the country.

One of the big selling points for the M53 is that it's the first french fighter engine with a FADEC. The test pilots were aparently fawning all over it, since it vastly reduced pilot workload, and much much improved start up time and procedure. Fun story, the ground support 2000 D should never have existed. It was developed in emergency from the nuclear 2000N to fill in for the delayed rafale. Also, only the 2000-9 (not in french service...) is really multirole. Yes there are variants for air combat (2000-C) ground support (2000-D), nuclear strike (2000-N) and badass air combat (2000-5) but each airframe cannot do anything else than its designated mission. If you want true multirole in french service, see rafale.

yes because M2000 it is a bit outdated now ... I cannot wait for the nex phase of the nEUROn !!!

The main design decision that parts the Mirage 2000 from the F-16 is: F-16 used BOTH a new engine AND relaxed stability. The french decided to opt for just the relaxed stability - considering the Snecma M53 as quite ambitious enough over the Atar on the F1. The more daring approach of the F-16 could have gone wrong, hence GD was prepared to "derelax" the stability by moving the wing forward one frame on the fuselage. Indeed the first batch of F-16's was too reactive and needed a larger tail to keep things in control. The F-16 also opted for a much simpler airintake which limited max. speed. The french obviously thought the semicircular intake as a well understood technology. So the french did was to suit the airframe to the engine (which you allways do). I consider the discussion of one versus two engines as a bit of a throwback to the first jet engines when engines were a lot less reliable. The Mirage 2000 is/was not the absolute cutting edge, but it was the bet, that contained fewer risks. In the event: Few of the F-16's fly/flew as airdefence/airsuperiority - most of them are bombtrucks - and capable trucks. The Mirage 2000 is predictably short on range, hence the refuelling probe. But again: In this day and age the F-16 is also short on range. The present demands range and deployability - preferably without airial refuelling - hence my argument for the F-35 for Canada. Canada is NOT going to have an aircraft carrier. Why? Because Canada does not NEED an aircraft carrier. It is much cheaper and easier to come to terms with Nato allies that can provide adequate ground facilities so you have the capability but not the cost.

I disagree with the comments: 1) For Canada it means that the same aircraft can perform both air defence and and ground attack (if any idiot should be stupid enough to invade Nunavut) - and it allows Canada to give and recieve reinforcements - and have fewer air stations. 2) If you see the Norwegean F-16's recieving refuelling from the dutch tankers in Trident Juncture 2018: Despite having large external tanks the F-16's are really short on range with any significant load. 3) As to the European scenario: Well the point is that hostile aircraft should have died long before reaching Danish/German or whatever airspace. You forget the airspace over Sweden and Finland. I have surmised that under Trident Juncture there is a Danish Frigate in the sea between Sweden and Finland - just in case the Russians should do anything stupid. Point being: In a crowded airspace you have a line of air defence missiles first to cause losses and break up any form of enemy formation. If Stockholm is to be nuked - well, the prevailing wind is westerly, so who cares? 4) What aircraft of Russian extraction is going into a dogfight with the F-35? Over Nunavut??? or Northern Alberta for that matter. I'm not saying the Typhoon could not do the job for Canada; but I am saying it will be a lot more hazzle and workarounds. The whole issue with the F/A-18 for Canada is more an issue with the USMC that badly needs a replacement for the early versions of the F/A-18. Not so much because of age; but because anti-ship missiles make the carriers withdraw further from the coast. The early F/A-18 has issues with spare parts and readiness; but that is hardly the main reason.

Finally! Thank you Matsimus! Cheers from France!

It's a lovely plane indeed and yes, if you hadn't by now, do try it in DCS, it's one the more user friendly jets that is (relatively) fully modeled there. Now for some minor corrections, i don't think the M2000 can be considered a true air superiority fighter, as it's range and payload is relatively low for that role. It is however a great light weight fighter and point defense interceptor, and i must stress again, truly a beautiful piece of art. Had the French never made the Rafale, this would have been by far my favorite European fighter jet.

Contrary to earlier tailless delta aircraft, the Mirage 2000 doesn't raise its elevons for take-off. Doing so reduces lift and consequently increases the airspeed and runway lenght required to get airborne. The Mirage 2000 lowers its elevons for take-off, increasing lift and reducing the required airspeed and runway length. Pure genius.

Another good video Mats. One thing I noticed is the hard-point configuration on the plane. The four points where the wings meet the fuselage near the leading and trailing edges of the wings must be a natural spot for delta wing aircraft. I recall that even the B-58 Hustler, a plane 20 years older than the Mirage 2000, was retrofitted with hardpoints in those exact spots. The Huslter was a delta wing bomber, and when the USAF started building smaller nuclear bombs like the B61, the Hustler needed this modification in order to drop them. Funny how these features could be carried forward into newer and smaller designs.

Dassault said himself "a good plane should be a beautiful plane"

France and Europe can produce very good high quality aircraft. Typhoon, Rafale , Saab Gripen. All said a very nice trio of war birds . Mirage 2000 is a fantastic modern classic.

Imagination Is Power fake band of idiots ... it was only old mirage3..the Argentineans did not have mirage 2000..the Harrier would have no chance against them ........ the only modern thing that possessed the Argentineans, it was the missile exocet .... the british had a pain in the ass .... mouhahahahaha

the dcs mirage is quite easy to learn but Kinda difficult to Master non the less i strongly encourage you to try it for me it has become my Number 1 Choice for fighter aircraft

Mirage is also a great maritime air assault too

An HAF Mirage 2000 blasted a Turkish F-16 out of the sky in REAL air combat! Also didn´t mention that Peru has a Mirage 2000 squadron since 1984!

@Gasy Mercury it was an f16

Would recommend trying DCS 10/10. The Mirage is a lot of fun, not that hard to fly and not too hard to learn. Not a terrible choice as a starting aircraft. Although if you're looking for something simple I would rather recommend something along the lines of the F5.

Best flying Baguette

Definitely pick it up in DCS, the systems are super easy to figure out, and it is a joy to fly. Plus it has a launch warning system built into the pylons of the magic 2 missile pylons which is great for detecting the non-radar guided missiles variety. unless of course the missile is launched directly in the blind spot of the system right behind the engine outlet :)

How is it Air to ground? I'm a ground prouder by trade, so that's the main reason I would get it.

@@boisecityplanes It can carry a few types of bombs and bomblet dispensers, and has both CCIP and CCRP bombing. It also supports GBUs with buddy Lasing. No AGMs though. kind of like a jack of all trades and master of none. For such a small air-frame it can actually carry quite alot of stuff!

@@boisecityplanes Great choice, the Viggen is really well modeled. already Preorderd the F14 from Heatblur and recently picked up the F18. I quite like the mirage but i was looking for something a little more capable in the A2A area.

those low level flying videos are really cool

No mistakes were made,good job...just could have talked about the dedicated air ground versions 2000N and D (the dark ones in the videos) as they are completely differently purposed and therefore equiped one being a nuclear bomber and the other a tactical one. A great testimony of what deltawing allowed already in the 80's and why it was retained for following planes...

I like the Mirage design too..

I used the Mirage 2000 as well as the F-18 in Ace Combat 7 mission 11 to destroy the Erusean fleet with long range anti-ship missiles. Best mission of the game.

This aircraft nearly ended up in RAF service. During the Mitterrand/Thatcher love in following the Falklands that led to the Channel Tunnel it also happened that the UK was investing billions adapting the Tornado (tactical strike aircraft) to replace the Lightening F6 (fighter aircraft) n the air defence role (later transpired to also be the Phantom as well) and the French were adapting the Mirage 2000 (fighter aircraft) to replace the Mirage iV (tactical strike aircraft). Obvious thing was for the French to buy UK built Tornado GR1 and the RAF to buy Mirage 2000. Idea was suggested and both leaders saw the logic to cement the relationship further and both airforces liked the idea of adding Tornado and Mirage to their inventry so briefly it looked like the dream deal was on. Sadly for the tax payers and pilots of both countries the respective aircraft industries successfully lobbied this very sensible solution away and the RAF ended up with unsatisfactory Tornado F2 and F3 and the French the equally unsatisfactory 2000n.

The Mirage reminds me of the French film Sky Fighters, granted the movie pretty much revolves around the Mirage

Indians were so impressed with there Mirage 2000H that they bought new Rafales coz of Mirage experience and built Tejas with Delta Wings due to there great experience with Mirage 2000

Beautiful plane... looks like a dart 👍

I've only just come across your channel, impressive content....

Freaked out when I saw you did the 2000! Just a couple of corrections... I think you were mixing up the armament. The C carries the 530 and Magic II, while later variants gained the ability to use MICA EM/IR. Also, later M2000Cs and all subsequent variants used an uprated engine with 21000 lbf in full burner. PS: I cannot recommend the DCS 2000 enough, it's my favorite module by, well, a lot.

7:08 forgot to mention its engine knocks out a killer "drum and bass" beat. Actually I'm very familiar with their sound as our property is a waypoint the Armée de l'Air uses for low altitude ground navigation exercises. When they kick in their afterburners and climb away from a couple of hundred feet the house rattles (sexier than drum and bass).

Those external tanks are huge

Mirage 2000 India ka best fighter aircraft hai

The Mirage is an amazing fighter. They are far more advanced than the f16s of the day. It is a multirole fighter from start. Not a half baked dogfighter that can carry any load like the f16.

Beautiful jet

Are you going to play Ace Combat 7 when it comes out?

South Africa had a number of these, and upgraded some of the to a unique variant
