here is my story with this beast
i loved the mirage even before it become available on DCS WORLD
my old house was near a airbase in (United Arab Emirates) it always felt so good
to hear the mirage taking off i can recognize it just by its sound
wanted to be a mirage2000-9 driver as a kid but blah blah wasn't lucky enough
luckily rabzam released it on dcs world , i instantly left the a10c & f15 and started to read the manual i was worried a bit as i knew it is hard to fly a pure delta wing but man .... instantly felt this plane was made for me the flight model is so good sometimes i just fly it for fun and admiring the sunset
however this sexy jet fights like a beast and strike like a thunder once you know what are doing and what you shouldn't
it is really good maneuverable fighter , sometimes i dont shot the enemy from a distance even when i have a good kill chance i get closer to him and dance with him !
as i always trust her in dogfights
how ever keep attention to your speed you dont need to be on you enemy 6 all the time
what is most importantly is to maintain you energy and fire a small burst when you feel comfortable
she is good in missiles combat too ( wvr) but keep in mind that you need to be the once who choose where and when to fight dont drag yourself into head-on against aim120 in a long distance
keep closing the fight area once it is less than 20nm shot! the 350D is one of the fastest missiles in DCS so it can reach your target before you target hits you .
also do not turn off your auto-pilot this plane is made to fly using auto pilot when you need to maneuver put you AP to standby and when you need push the plane more it will not fail you
just push the AP exceed limit button and she will turn insanely but dont go over 12G
but eventually as every other war machine it has its own cons
ie;
-the RWR is kinda bad the refreshing rate is slow and when someone gets close to you you better dont lose visual on his as the rwr is really bad in close distance
but the maw is really helpful to give you missiles direction specially against ir missile as you dont get a radar lock warning
-the radar is kinda meh
you can look up and down because the antenna moves 120 degrees vertically (:
but it aint really good to lock bogies in far distance specially if their jammer is on it can be really annoying
-the fuel tank jettison system is kinda uncomfortable
-the HUD refresh rate feels kinda slow
but it might be a
hard ware issue because i use a 42in 60hz TV for as my pc display.
everything else works perfect for me
and remember boys
you need to treat her good so she treat you good.
Thank you RABZAM you deserve the best and hopefully we see a mirage2000-5 with mica missiles soon
cheers o7 :pilotfly:
