Popular Post Vibora Posted November 23, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 23, 2020 MIRAGE F1 BY AERGES ENGINEERING SL Dear DCS users, We are happy to announce you the development of Mirage F1 by Aerges Engineering SL. We can imagine your surprise for such news, but you shouldn’t be concerned, we have decided to work on Mirage F1 with Aerges instead of AvioDev for business reasons. Aerges Engineering is formed, mainly, by the same highly experienced Team components that have been developing the advanced version of the C-101. We are, basically, the same people. Some of the members have left and some are new, though they have already been working on C-101 for some time, but we keep the same core, the same or even more experience, know-how, enthusiasm and general technical knowledge. Furthermore, all the Team members are engineers and/or pilots. All this means that you can expect to get a Mirage F1 module with same or even higher level of precision, quality, attention to detail and professionalism than our previous module, the C-101. In this preview, we show you some screenshots of the Mirage F1-CE cockpit, with accurate and detailed 3D model and PBR textures, including some external AI models. And, in the coming weeks or months, we will continue presenting you screenshots and/or videos, as well as development news. We have been working on advanced flight model, engine and main aircraft systems coding for a year and a half. We can say it is, basically, completed, and we now have to work on systems interaction with cockpit, clickable cockpit, and specific aircraft systems. Our module is absolutely based on real data, that means that what you will get is the most accurate simulation that can be done of the real Mirage F1, with professional quality. What you will see is the real airplane with real data. Obviously, since what we use is real data, any real performance charts, like time to climb, energy-maneuverability, etc. will be fulfilled. The versions we are working on are all the Spanish Air Force versions, since those are the ones we have real info for, that is, Mirage F1-CE, Mirage F1-EE, Mirage F1-BE and Mirage F1-M, though the latter will take longer to be finished as it includes new avionics, which require a huge amount of additional work. We estimate to have first version, Mirage F1-CE, ready in Early Access in about half a year. We would think about doing other countries versions if we get real data for them, but it’s not part of our main target right now. For those of you who are not totally familiarized with this aircraft: The Mirage F1-CE is the basic single cockpit version, the Mirage F1-EE is the refuelling (multi-role) version, the Mirage F1-BE is the two seater and the Mirage F1-M is the modernized version with new avionics. We hope you enjoy the pictures.

FoxAlfa Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Excellent news!!! Really looking forward to it! Quick question, which version supports SAHR missiles? ------- All the people keep asking for capabilities to be modelled.... I want the limitations to be modelled.... limitations make for realistic simulation. Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in the mud, after a bit you realize the pig likes it.

Vilab Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Great new that the F1 wasn't forgotten. I hope you add the "unrealistic" S-530F for gameplay reason ( to simulate the AA abilities of nearly all non Spanish F1 version ) to your products, it would greatly increase the attractiveness of those to non Spanish Customers and make the F1 a decent counter part to the F-14 and the upcoming Mig-23 and F-4E Excellent news!!! Really looking forward to it! Quick question, which version supports SAHR missiles? they all do ( but the -M ? ), the Spanish versionS are however stuck with the original late 50s R-530 which is quite useless, Will any of these versions be exocet capable? they aren't 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinuzz Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Any news on what armaments will be included/developed for this platform? In addition, you specifically mention the F1-EE is the refuelling (multi-role) version. Any plans to allow us to buddy fuel? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLTeo Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Holy crap!! Amazing! With all the work that's gone into the C-101, I thought the Mirage would be much farther away. Does anyone know what weapons we can expect from each variant? I know there are lists out there for generic F1s, but it's unclear whether those were also used by the Spanish Air Force, or whether Aviodev/Aerges will stretch things a bit (like they did with the Sea Eagle on the C-101) to give us more options. edit: Any news on what armaments will be included/developed for this platform? In addition, you specifically mention the F1-EE is the refuelling (multi-role) version. Any plans to allow us to buddy fuel? Eh, beat me to it. If I understand things correctly, I don't think the EE can do buddy refueling, but it has a refueling probe unlike the CE. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notproplayer3 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I absolutely love this jet, very interesting service history among many airforces. Also, I hope I didn't misunderstand what I just read but are we getting 4 versions ? I am absolutely trembling by the excitement. Wish you guys the absolute best in achieving your goals !

Northstar98 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Awesome stuff! Especially with all those planned variants! Really like what I'm seeing here! I wonder if anybody can tell me the difference between the baseline B and C vs the Spanish export variants we're getting? Somebody mentioned the SARH/IR Super 530 on the baseline (French) variants but not the Spanish ones (presumably they have a downgraded RADAR that doesn't support it (no PDI/PSIC?) or something?).

Jester986 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Is there a list of weapons for each variant? My googling has only been able to find overall F-1 load outs, not variant specific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
