Well, the bug would go like this:

 

'Mirage 2000 exceeds documented maximum speed at 0g acceleration'

 

The problem with reporting this as a bug is that the 'top speed' may actually be reported with 0.03g acceleration remaining for example - I've seen such graphs elsewhere.

 

I don't have a handy chart showing the Mirage's maximum speed at SL unfortunately. I just know that other fighters are capable of reaching those speeds when clean, so it isn't a strange thing or anything.

 

Thats not a bug, thats a bug report. I am not making a bug report, i am simply discussing stuff.

 

 

I dont understand what you said about G. Could you clarify please? Surely you mean 1g... No?

...why... are we using wikipedia? When razbam released the charts they intend to use for the aircraft already?

You shouldn't get to warm up about this. There are reports about the idle power not being constant or increasing a lot in some unknown circumstances, also the plane goes supercruising very often. SO... maybe there are still more tunings to be made and this discussion on numbers and how one knows every number on it and it like this or like that is useless at this point.

An F-15 will 'supercruise' while carrying two bags. It's not a bug.

DCS modules are built up to a spec, not down to a schedule.

So Mirage is modeled after F15? Where did CptSmiley said it's not a bug because F15 does supercruise "with 2 bags"?

 

or you mean "it might be realistic after some stories?"

Not for the F-15 it isn't. The Mirage's engine doesn't provide as much TWR though.

Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D

I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda

I thought the consensus was it's not rare for a modern fighter to go a bit over Mach 1 in full MIL, so I provided an example.

 

If new info was reveled that showed the mirage can't then I stand corrected.

Farewell mach 2 Mirage

You'll be sorely missed = (

 

No Transwarp RTB anymore.

Sadly no as soon as you reach 750 knots you just simply stop accelerating and if you're in the dive you can't go above that speed and if you do you start slowing down to reach that speed.

 

Kinda bummed out : /

Well its probably way more correct then before. :DD

two points:

1. CAP loadout (2x530,2x550,1xRP)

40.000 feet

Full mil

max speed = 0.61M

2. Bomb truck GBU-12 loadout (4xGBU-12, 2x550, 2xRP)

23.600 feet

Full mil

max speed = 0.81M

 

is this normal ?

You have to get with high alt with speed and keep that or you will never get over the induced drag of high alpha with enginepoweronly.

 

At least was like that before and makes sense to me ! :D

no, before the update to 1.5.5 I could gain speed without AB in horizontal flight in my point 1. up to 0.98M ...

Oooh, there's something you should keep in mind. The speed of sound (and you mach number) changes with altitude (temperature), also the drag and engine performance changes. Keep that in mind.

of course I'm keeping this in mind

but Airbus A320 somehow manages to gain 0.84M without any afterburners @ 40k feet, but a fully loaded Mirage 2000C can not ? wuuut ?

 

Thanks guys I'll check it out

thanks bro !
