Geoff_B Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Excellent news, a nice kit to see in plastic as the resin examples didn't really get it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colossusfr Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 (edited) I'm not sure it will be a G8. I think it will be a G (single-engined aircraft and not twin engine). Anyway, it's a very good news !! Edited May 30, 2016 by colossusfr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomppa B Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) Which version will it be, the G4 or the G8-01 or G8-02? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dassault_Mirage_G From the bottom of the page you find links to interesting sites. The Dassault site for example. Edited May 31, 2016 by Tomppa B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomppa B Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Come to think of it. Two Mirage prototypes...could we expect a third in the form of a Mirage F2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff_B Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 Come to think of it. Two Mirage prototypes...could we expect a third in the form of a Mirage F2? It would be nice although i think they did that under their Pheadra line in resin by Anigrand. http://www.ebay.fr/itm/DASSAULT-MIRAGE-III-F-2-PHAEDRA-1-72-RESIN-KIT-/121615246560?hash=item1c50d564e0:g:-pQAAOSw34FVIodk They also did the Mirage G but I have a feeling they got the dimensions wrong as Anigrand di with their G-8 http://www.ebay.fr/itm/DASSAULT-MIRAGE-G-PHAEDRA-1-72-RESIN-KIT-/121619757042?hash=item1c511a37f2:g:ttMAAOSwv0tVKRXB So I can see them getting them done in plastic by Modelsvit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colossusfr Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 The Phaedra line was already done for Bassin Maquette by Anigrand. ...... Alain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navy Bird Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 I wonder how much work would be required to convert a twin-engined Mirage G into the VFX contender from Vought, the V-507? Cheers, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

areva Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 (edited) On the ground, would it have dropped flaps and slats Like an F-111 or F-14? If so would this company model that feature?

Aardvark Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 8 hours ago, areva said: On the ground, would it have dropped flaps and slats Like an F-111 or F-14? It's difficult questions. If we see on photo dropped slats on Mirage 4000 then we see very difficult mechanic which is very difficult to do in the model and the most important thing besides the question “why?” is the question “how much will it cost?”....for manufacturing and for modeller's? Are you ready for the fact that when released dropped flaps and slats, the price will increase by 30-40% or more?

But I’m more interested in comparing the G.8 with the MiG-23 as the closest analogue ...... who else would have done a good and accurate MiG-23! B.R.
