Hodo Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 So looking at the Mirage and having flown it for nearly year online. I have a question about the weapons loadout. So as far as I can find in game the M2k can have 2 Magic and 2 530Ds. Is it not possible for it to have an additional 4 530s on the inner hardpoints? Those are usually loaded with bombs but useless for anything else. It is a little odd for an interceptor to have so much fuel but no weapons staying power. Having 4 missiles and guns is well a but sad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinterH Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 It can't. Later Mirage 2000-5 variants can carry MICA missiles under the hardpoints you speak of. Mirage 2000C however, carries 4 air to air missiles. Considering it is an early to mid 80s aircraft, it was more or less the standard for light to medium weight fighters to lug around 4-6 missiles, F-16, F-5, MiG-23, MiG-29, MiG-21, JA 37 etc all had 4-6 missiles, though Mirage is admittedly at the lower end with 4. Wishlist: F-4E Block 53 +, MiG-27K, Su-17M3 or M4, AH-1F or W circa 80s or early 90s, J35 Draken, Kfir C7, Mirage III/V DCS-Dismounts Script Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodo Posted January 14, 2021 Author Share Posted January 14, 2021 What about the use of the Exocet missile? For anti ship work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Requires a ground mapping radar i.e. RDM, rather than the M-2000C's RDI radar. Quote The Mirages use the AM-39 Exocet Block 2 in combination with the RDM-3 radar in Surface Survey mode with a detection range of 60 nm (110 km) which, always according to Nikita’s article, allow the HAF to launch an attack outside of the RIM-66 Standard SM-1 surface-to-air missile used by the Turkish Navy. https://theaviationist.com/2019/12/09/photos-allegedly-show-greek-mirage-2000-targeting-a-turkish-frigate-with-exocet-missile-during-a-show-of-force/ i9 9900K @4.7GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 10 Pro x64, 1920X1080 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
