Capabilities of PAF Dassault MIRAGE-III/V.

The advent of the likes of Go Pro Cameras means we are privileged to view the locations and angles which normally only a fighter pilot would be in a position to see.

Too late for these… they should be decommissioned and stay in storages.

I don't think even a pilot can turn his head 180 degrees and get this view unless he has some premium rear view mirrors

Once a Gora Sahib said, what goes up always must come down.
The same pilot when he comes into land will enjoy a panoramic view of the same base.

What some determination can get you when backed in a corner.

Great interview for Mirage lovers.

But, paf always wanted to get rid of their mirages, otherwise they would have been flying cheetah in paf colors.

The mirage sounds like the PAF's equivalent of the A10. Unliked by the AF till it found a niche and then all of a sudden taken over for the niche role. I think it is ideal for the A2G role and will be used for it. As to Cheetah modification my own feeling is PAF assessed rightly that even developing it would not give it any meaningful role other than the one it is slotted into. Putting BVRs on it still means it will be very vulnerable in a modern war arena. If you look back in early 2000s with PAF still practicing for a WVR engagement, it just did not sit well with PAF strategy.
