The Dassault Mirage III is a reference point of the French aircraft production. Since the early sixties it provided the Armée de l’Air, the French Air Force, with a reliable and effective fighter aircraft. The Mirage III rapidly became a commercial success and was widely exported to several countries, taking part in several conflicts during the seventies and eighties. Characterised by its delta wing design without horizontal tail plane, thanks to its Snecma Atar afterburning turbojet, it was able to exceed the speed of Mach 2.

This one’s the single-seat interceptor version, armed with two 30 mm DEFA cannons, three AAM’s and the somewhat strange-looking RPK-10 tank & bomb carrier which was developed to add range and capability to the Mirage. Each tank could carry up to four bombs along with 110 Gal (500 l) of fuel.

    @SimplyPlain No problem, it's probably the length, you should never use different values in the exhaust scales, changing the engine's max would do the job.

    @edensk Thanx! My bad, not assigning AG6 to the left pylon. The exhaust though... I noticed it behaves a bit strange. Sometimes it looks quite normal, and sometimes it seems very narrow. Dunno why... height & width are the same scale. Any ideas what the problem could be?

    One of my favourite aircraft, really nice replica, good job!
    .
    I've noticed some flaws though:
    - AG6 only detaches the left pylon.
    - The engine's exhaust scale (without afterburner) is a bit messed up.
    Other than that it's pretty nice.
