I've been watching lots of DCS (Digital Combat Simulator) videos and saw the Mirage 2000 pop up quite frequently so I decided to build one as I've only built one other delta wing aircraft. I decided to make it even more of a challenge by building the wings different to my usual style so instead of using the normal wing blocks with control surfaces, I used structural wings and hinge rotators. I tried to keep the part count low while maintaining the shape. It's not 1:1 or even 100% accurate but I think it's good enough to share. The pitch is a bit slow but I think that can be fixed with forward canards in the future. Enjoy this simple Mirage 2000!

Also working on something like the Grippen lol@greasytortle
I'm currently working on a SEPECAT Jaguar, and have plans to build either a Saab Viggen or Draken.
@RhysBrown @BroAeronautics I'm not too familiar with the Mirage so I left the name pretty blank. It can be whatever version you think it is. I didn't get the wing shape perfect there's a little too much length at the tips but that's so the leading edge flap part works. I might make the version with the forward canards for extra maneuverability.
@BroAeronautics C varient
Which variant is this? If you don't know that's fine.
Ah sweet you did a Mirage! Nice job!
@AceOfSpade That's somewhere next on my list. I do want to make a new F-15 though as my old one doesn't handle well and isn't the most realistic.
You should try the F-14D next. The ‘Cat was always a favorite of mine, as my grandfather flew them in and a little before the Gulf War!!!
Cool
