sedenion Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 I don't know if the case was discussed before (i don't think so) but the manual mention EXT and INT as: EXT: Unknow, probably simultaneous rocket release. INT: Unknow, probably individual rocket release. I guess EXT stands for "Extérieur" (exterior) and INT for "Intérieur" (interior)... But i don't know if that makes sens in rockets context.

I noticed that too, forgot to post about it though, it's an interesting question. My guess is that you may load more that two rocket pods and thus select which one you want to shoot (if loaded with different types of rockets). I don't know where those additional rocket pods would be placed though. -> On magic pylons? Too heavy? -> On wing root pylons? What about rocket exhaust directly into the engine intake? -> On twin racks? I doubt they can command separate pods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gospadin Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Per the manual, rocket pods can be placed on all 4 wing pylons. Only the inner wing pylons are enabled in M-2000C.lua at this time, however.

Yep, after a quick research I found a couple of diagrams suggesting that the 2000D was able to carry the rocket pods in all 4 wing pylons, so it makes sense. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dassault_Mirage_2000N/2000D#Mirage_2000D "Up to 4x Matra SNEB 68-mm 18-round rocket pods on the four underwing hardpoints" (I know this data is for 2000D) Edited January 3, 2016 by PiedDroit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jojo Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Buddy refueling pod ...lol Irak did it with Mirage F1 to strike Iran islands. In France I suspect it was done more for training purpose. It was used in Cambrai, 1000km north of Istres where tankers are based. Mirage fanatic !

gospadin Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Basically a french F/A-18 buddy tank system. I love it. =P Reminds me of how the British got their first strike in the Falklands war. 1 bomber with 13 buddy-tankers.

PiedDroit Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 btw, that chart shows only 2 GBU-12 LGBs are available Yeah I don't know why.. Other sources say up to 10 GBU-12, which is more believable with the D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jojo Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 btw, that chart shows only 2 GBU-12 LGBs are available 4 GBU-12 load is very recent addition to Mirage 2000, 10 is BS... Mirage fanatic !

Azrayen Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 (I know this data is for 2000D) Well, the mentionned 2x internal guns should have been a give-away that it's not just the D ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiedDroit Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Well, the mentionned 2x internal guns should have been a give-away that it's not just the D ;) I think that chart does come from a game. Looked nice though, but not very realistic (might be a mix for a generic Mirage-2000). The wiki page for the C only states "rockets" and "up to 4 pods" for the D. So I assume the airframe is capable of carrying them. This and the fact that "EXT" and "INT" ended up in RAZBAM's Mirage-2000C are good hints that we could have them. But nothing is certain...

Eldur Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Found this: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2498128&postcount=3 So it might be correct that there are no F4 pods on the outer pylons, but it might be possible to hang 2 with an AUF2 on each inner wing rack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hook47 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Two more pods would be great, since the rockets are tack drivers on this bird. I thought it odd it couldn't carry them on the outer pylons but maybe that is how it is.

gospadin Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 One question occurred to me... For the GBU-12, when carrying 4 (as was stated as possible)... which pylons are the other two carried on?

nomdeplume Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 For the GBU-12, when carrying 4 (as was stated as possible)... which pylons are the other two carried on? I believe there's one each on the wing root pylons, and two can be carried on a dual rack on the centreline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
