Air-to-ground variant (CLICK ME)
Wikipedia
"The Dassault Mirage 2000 is a French multirole, single-engine fourth-generation jet fighter manufactured by Dassault Aviation. It was designed in the late 1970s as a lightweight fighter to replace the Mirage III for the French Air Force (Armée de l'Air). The Mirage 2000 evolved into a multirole aircraft with several variants developed, with sales to a number of nations. It was later developed into the Mirage 2000N and 2000D strike variants, the improved Mirage 2000-5 and several export variants. Over 600 aircraft were built and it has been in service with nine nations."

Control Quirks
Lots of nose-up trim is required to fly level. It will nose down regardless at very low speeds.
Optimal touchdown speed during landing is approximately 250 mph (rotation speed is likewise). It is possible to land at lower speeds, depending on how many stores you have on the aircraft.
It is recommended to jettison the EFTs in an air-to-air engagement. They have been weighted to simulate the 6g fly-by-wire limit that is imposed on the real aircraft when it has EFTs attached.
Notable features that were missing from my initial build include:
- Camouflage
- High-quality custom weapons
- Superior flight model
- Suspended landing gear
- Extreme level of accuracy to the real aircraft compared to the original
Unit Info
This aircraft was modeled after the historical livery of Mirage 2000C unit "5 - 0J" from the Escadron de Chasse 2/5 "Île-de-France." It is currently stationed at Orange Air Base in France, with a modified tail livery. The squadron has served the Armee de l'Air (French Air Force) since 1941. It has employed the Mirage 2000 since the 1990s. Currently, they are responsible for training all new Mirage 2000 pilots, alongside their primary goal of defending the nation. The Mirage 2000B two-seater variant also assists them in this role.

I would also like to credit all of the individuals who gave me feedback in SPBC. Their advice has improved the build, and it shows. You know who you are <3

IOS doesn't support mods.@Dodgechallengers
I use An IPhone 7 @WIZARD2017
What device do you use?@Dodgechallengers
I’m not shure how to put designer suit into the game or even download into the game I need help@WIZARD2017
How do you get the download into the game @SpiritusRaptor
Ok,I will try later.@ainanen
@WIZARD2017 It is a mod. You must download an image to your PC in order to use it in the SimplePlanes designer with the mod.
May I ask you a question? What is a Designer Suit? How to put a photo on it?@ainanen
I have a bunch of Mirage F1's at work.
you're welcome, and seriously, this jet looks damn good!!!!
@ainanen
@TheSleepingInsomniac It does not. I am not sure why the slider appears, lol
@SpiritusRaptor Thank you man. I'll have to bookmark this comment, I've been trying to figure out how to solve both of those issues for ages
I hear you - writing can easily be taken the wrong way, anyways I appreciate any comments on my uploads as always.
@BogdanX
Flight model - a couple of quick observations - COT is above COM which is causing the downward pitch (I added some weight to align it and solved it) and the control surfaces for pitch are too large which is causing the bobbing - either reduce them or move the CoM forward or backwards (need to find that sweet spot!)
Hope this helps.
@BogdanX @ainanen
Ahh, that makes sense! I’ll try that, and also contacting WINP7... thanks!
@BogdanX
This one bizarre set of comments in the post!!! keep it up man! BTW the paint job looks amazing!!!!!
@ainanen
“also the blueprint mode, Designer Suite, lets you post photos as thumbnail. Not directly, but is easy”
How does this work? I can’t get the other picture upload mod to work on my mac.
@BogdanX
VTOL Do anything?
@BogdanX Yes, there are lots of problems that ultimately root back to me not setting dragscale and massscale to 0 on parts that should have them. That resulted in the drag being quite severe, which had to be compensated by a lot of thrust, which messed up the T/W ratio... so on and so forth. In the end I felt that I was happy with it though, save for the ability to climb vertically indefinitely, since the turn rate/G-limiter are both pretty accurate and cool.
@temporaryaccount Yes, his is amazing. I am trying to help him with it as much as I can using the research I have learned from this build, but he has already done an outstanding job without much assistance. I am as excited for his as you are, haha.
Excuse me, what the fu^^ @Gameboi14
In a bit of a harsh Way. “Oh, you think I’m done?” and “Here we see EXTREME Detail!” is pretty rude. I think he was triggered by the “extreme Level of Detail” Thing. @ainanen
Dassault Mirage 2000/Vitesse maximale
2 336 km/h, the plane is beautiful, but the perfs are horrible :/
@RamboJutter Hmm, I understand. Thank you, I will look into it for my next build.
@RAF1 Thank you. Fortunately the 2000 specifically has seen some success, compared to those that were hammered in the Falklands. Lol
@ainanen yeah each circle in the roundel will have a ratio compared to the other, so a roundel like the HAF use has a 3:2:1 ratio so the largest is 3x the smallest. Different eras used different ratios. That website explains the RAF ones.
