Hi all

We have been working since last february with a couple of people of friends on a projet called AdA Mod- "Armйe De l'Air" (ie "French Air Force").

The general idea was to :

- integrate as much french hardware as possible (Mirage F-1,Mirage IV created by Knell..., AWACS...)

- replace the different Mig29s by flyable Mirage fighters

- to entirely reskin / resound the Mig29s cockpits, to make you feel as much as possible like flying a Mirage 2000 or F-1

Right now, only the pit of the 2000-5 has been completed, but the others are under development. And considered the fact that the flight model, the avionic... could not be properly tuned, the result is something like a Mirage 29S or a Mig 2000-5, but we really enjoyed making it

We hope to be able to make a beta version available at the end of August (we are still working on a big 25+ missions pack : takes a lot of time to create and to type the briefings in french -and- english )

Meanwhile, a very nice teaser made by Lothamroth is available here :

or on low tube (low res : bad for the text explaining what the mod is all about)

PS : we spent a lot of time on this project and do not expect anything from it excepted a "thanks guys". Please, do not assimilate our mod with some eventual anti-french feelings or your dislike for Dassault fighters

PPS : a little idea of what to expect :

Excellent Work Gents

Might just be enough to convince me to drag myself away from my T-Frog for long enough to strap the Mirage to my back.....albeit only for a wee while

Thank you Viper And Mitch developped some very beautiful fictionnal Mirage skins based on the "real" two seats versions used for conventionnal strike (2000D) or nuke (2000N)
Considered that A/G ordnance is available, I think you should get some fun

Hub out

PS : we did not managed to get in touch with Mitch and asks his permission to use its skins. He is in good place in the readme.txt and due credits are given to its work, but we wish we could have ask him first. If you know a way to reach him, please, let me know

Hi Colt40Five

Thank you very much And about the Jaguar, We thought about it We wanted to replace the Su25 with a Jag', the same way we did with the Migs and the Mirages But unfortunatly, we haven't found a decent 3D model to add to Lockon yet Too bad

Hey, thanks a lot It has been a long and hard work (actually, it's our 3rd version of the mod, but we wanted to get the best results)

Cheers
