Antilope V radar doesn't have air to air mode. It cannot fire Fox-1 nor Fox-3. It only uses Fox-2 Matra R.550 Magic II for self defense. It is supposed to be updated in 2020 with MICA IR replacing Magics.

thanks !

can I get a link to read about this ?

Unfortunately I didn't find so much content in English.

 

Here is a short intro from the radar manufacturer: https://www.thalesgroup.com/en/antilope-5-radar

 

And below some content in French you can try to translate with any online translator.

A paper on the upcoming update of the Mirage 2000D:

Hope you'll get all of it.

In short, Mirage 2000D will be updated in 2019 to adapt its performances to modern conflics. The update will include canon capability. The same canon M2000C has. Right now the 2000D is not canon capable.

 

Magics willa be replaced by MICA IR.

Antilope V does have some AA modes, but not as efficient as RDI.

Search mode is more limited in range, and it has some close combat mode to assist Magic use.

 

So no Super 530D with Antilope V.

did any of M2K variants have GPS-corrected navigation ?

 

Probably the -5 since it is the most modern version with full glass cockpit.
