The Migs will carry the same KAB 500s that the MKI uses, while the Mirage can use US, Israeli and French bomb kits, not to mention the other weaponary. In A2A as mentioned before, so the M2K-5 will be much closer in A2A and still superior in A2G!
Impossible - because Mirage lacks in pure kinematics and sheer power .
When you claim Mirage will come close to mig29 in A2A performance . How do you explain the very basic deficiency correction in Mirage .
- No engine upgrade , how come T/W got bridged .
- How will rate of climb improve
- How come sustained turn rate improved overnight , with Drag of Delta wing persisiting .
- How come instantenous rate of turn improved overnight .
- I dont see any reason for Rdy-3 to be superior , RDY-2 if - was part of package then yes comparable to Zhuk's performance . But Rdy-3 certainly not .
If any ---with addition of fly-by-wire to Mig29 , it will outclass mirage even more than it did by manual hydraulic control
And to add these are words of Ex- Air Marshal Masand .
Pilot who flew Mig29 in DACT exercise between Mig vs Mirage . And he spanked Mirage badly
If you want - I can post that 12 years old article here . Which he wrote himself with pictures of exercise .
And as far as PGM is concerned .
Mig never carried them , so after upgrade with new weapon management sysytem - If Migs carry KAB500 + KH29 A2S
KH35 Antiship , Kh31 Anti radiation missile .
I see Mig closing gap rather than other way round .
