Pack of four Mirage 2000 in the colours of the 727 Eskadrille of the Royal Danish Air Force. This scheme appears in the real world on Danish F-16AMLU. To install, extract to DCS World\Mods\aircraft\M-2000C\Liveries\M-2000C - you may need to create the M-2000C folder in Liveries for them to appear in-game.

Available in the User Files section as soon as they gain admin approval.

This is not the paint scheme of the Danish airforce per se. It's just the default paint scheme that General Dynamics (Now Lockheed Martin) gave all their F-16's by default unless something else was requested by the client Air Force. You will see it applied to the majority of F-16's flying in various nations. I believe the dark grey is a form of early radar absorbing paint to reduce RCS.

 

Now when we receive a new aircraft it's likely it'll again be some combination of grey colours as default on the F-35, Eurofighter Typhoon or F-18 (whichever is picked as the replacement) but it won't be this exact combinations since it's simple the default of the F-16, not the scheme of the RDAF.

 

Since F-16 is the only fighter jet in the danish airforce currently this is what our current aircrafts are painted as, but an actual danish scheme would look more like this:

granted this is from the cold war and would probably not be used again in modern day application.

The Star fighters were also used with a flat dark green similar to the one on the Draaken.

Nu er jeg sådan set dansk og ved udemærket alt hvad du lige har skrevet. Esk 727 flyver F-16 i standard NATO-grå camouflage så derfor er Miragen lavet sådan. Der kommer en Draken-udgave senere.

 

Translated to English:

I am Danish and am well aware of what you write. Esk 727 flies F-16 in standard NATO-grey camouflage so that's why the Mirage is that way. There will be a Draken version later.

 

Besides, the AATW F-104 Gate Guard from Vadum you posted is in Canadian colours with the Danish roundels applied afterwards. The Danish sceme was exactly the same as the Draken, a flat olive drab with registration numbers and nothing else.

 

I know my liveries and I know them well and I make them the way I want to make them - and there are PLENTY of green-base camouflage pattern Mirages to choose from in the user files if that's what you're looking for, just cross out RAAF and write RDAF

 

EDIT:

 

And actually the danish F-16AMLU (and my Mirage) uses different shades of grey from the default General Dynamics colours.
