When is MWS getting implemented

[Silvern]

What is the ETA on MWS?

It was stated multiple time that RAZBAM Mirage will have it. :)

Are you sure it was on the 2000c. I read it was only available on the 2000D and 2000N.

You read right, but it's believed the C has all the internal bits necessary for it, they just don't normally install the external sensors since it's much less useful for the intercept role they actually use the C's for. Or something like that. So Razbam plan to implement it, anyway, since the aircraft supports it and DCS users won't be using only it for intercept/air-to-air.

As it's a non-default system for the C variant (that is modelized), I would guess this has a lower priority than other systems that are included on the real Cs, such as the INS.

 

So... after beta is finished? I'm confortable with that.

Since the main weapon R-530D is decommissioned, M-2000Cs were used as bomb trucks with M-2000Ds buddy lase for them or with dumb bombs, plus they used their cannons for A/G because the Ds do not have guns. So the M-2000C is used for A/G IRL.

Yes indeed, so what ?

 

M-2000C deployed in operations haven't been seen with DDM fitted.

 

From what I read and understood about the system, all Mirage 2000 variants have provision to fit DDM.

But when it was fitted to Mirage 2000N they had to update the ECM software. So it's not just plug & play.

And so far I didn't found any evidence of DDM on Mirage 2000C at any time.

 

PS: It's a common mistake, but R530 missile have been used on Mirage III and Mirage F1, never on Mirage 2000.

It's Super 530D, so S530D if you want to make it short. Thanks.
