Dassault Mirage 2000

16.3k greasytortle  5.9 years ago

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!

    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.

    @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!!!
