History
The Dassault Mirage ADV 50 is a larger and improved version from the original Mirage III. It could be considered a transitional version between the Mirage III and the Mirage 2000. Given the successful sales and export of the aircraft, Dassault Aeronautics decided to develop a more sophisticated version that would allow to expand the cargo capacity, as well as the ability to carry anti-ship weapons. In this way, in addition to Dassault Etendard, the Mirage ADV 50 could perform attack tasks or replace it in case of war of attrition. Consider the cold war scenario, in which the small French naval weapon was totally destroyed. The work of anti-ship attack could fall on a formidable multifunctional superiority fighter. However, the costs of the project and the design of the more modern Mirage F-1 and Mirage 2000 afterwards, did not allow its full development. In spite of everything, they were manufactured in a short series and stored in the reserve, waiting for their entry into combat.
