TEMPESTMK5 Posted December 19, 2022 Author Share Posted December 19, 2022 Good afternoon Everybody interested in building any aircraft built by the Marcel Bloch Dassault Cie is welcome in this Gb ,no need to ask .. Best Regards Patrice 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Masters Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Just checking my stash. I’ve got quite a few that I didn’t know qualified like the Alpha Jet and and the Jaguar. Very fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Boak Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 The Alpha Jet was Dassault, but the Jaguar was Breguet. When Dassault took over Breguet they realised that every sale for the Mirage F1 had twice the value to the company as every Jaguar, so the Jaguar sales team found themselves being undermined. Guess it doesn't count for modelling, and it's all water under the bridge now. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were the French versions ever exported? I believe that Kuwait was in the market for them but was pressured into accepting Mirage F1s instead. Ecuador, Oman and India operated Jaguars but they were all Jaguar Internationals and their sales resulted from the BAe sales team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Boak Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 No, Dassault never exported any Jaguars - I don't know whether the French ones ever had upgraded engines. However every exported Jaguar was half-built in France. Nigeria also received Jaguars, but operating them might be an overstatement. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEMPESTMK5 Posted December 28, 2022 Author Share Posted December 28, 2022 Good evening I think that one can find very interesting info here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SEPECAT_Jaguar Best Regards Patrice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zebra Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Santa brought me a Modelsvit Mirage 2000C and the Special Hobby double boxing of the Super Mystere so they're definitely on the build list. I hadn't thought the Alpha Jet would count either, so that's also a possibility (I've got a Wingman boxing of the Kinetic kit, although being a Kinetic kit there's a good chance it'll annoy me until I put it on the shelf of doom. Me and Kinetic don't really get along for some reason). And then there's the Flamant that's been sitting in the stash for a bit too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjorn Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 (edited) Having finished a Super Étendard a few days ago, I am really inspired to build more Dassaults. So I am in for this one, with one of all of the Mirage IIIs in my stash. Edited January 1, 2023 by Bjorn 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
