RJ-Dassault Mirage 7000 4.0

245k RamboJutter  20 days ago

Introduction

Who doesn't like a Dassault Mirage? Who doesn't like pretty colour schemes? Here we have a combination, a futuristic stealthy style shape with a South African Skydancer inspired colour scheme.

No gimmicks, not armed, set up as a display jet with massive amounts of G / pitch / roll ability and more thrust that would be likely in real life.

It does have sequenced undercarriage doors / legs, suspension to all 3 legs, intake and exhaust ducts, flashy lights etc.

General thoughts behind the shape was to that all modern aircraft in development appear to be going down the "stealth" route yet in most roles they carry external ordinance / drop tanks etc. so why not make a Mirage into a stealthy shape but without the complication of an internal bay? I was going to diamond shape the UC doors but this just adds more complication on SP and since i was creating a display model anyway it would be unnecessary (look at the PAK-50 display model and all those screw heads...)

Controls

AG1 = start engine
AG3 = airbrake
AG4-5 = nav and formation lights

    Aesthetically, the only complaint from me is how the nose droops down, but otherwise it looks awesome.
