Mirage 3 Grifo 3 and for mirage 5 Grifo 5 were available but paf only went with Grifo 3 not sure why

Last month in the defence day documentary they showed mirage with nose cones. Do they house radar?

Pretty routine. Sometimes they come in for equipment fit as well- the current fit on them is in some cases comparable to Latest ELINT/EW planes.

Radar diameter could not have been more than 4 cms different. What advantage would it have brought to the range and at what cost. This is what needs to be answered.

Wondering if pac is upgrading older rose I and II to rose 3 standard cockpit at overhaul ? Only 14 Ac were part of rose 3 and 19 for rose 2
Rose 1 were mirage 3 with grifos. Which along with rose 2 had single monochrome HDd

If Mirages will stay till 2025, then ROSE Mirages should be upgraded with Chinese air cooled aesa radars.

No they r not

I don't see mirage beyond 2025 max. By PAF will have close to 250 JFT and 70+ falcons

150 JFT - attrition and rebuild excluded.

Take a bow Mirage Engineers Take a Bow .... parts look mint fresh
If we can just get an AESA for the Mirage or CPU upgrade would it not be nice

Technically if we just upgrade the Computers / Radar rest of plane looks in great shape

It would have looked far better overall if it was converted over to Cheetah-C
