Mirages and 2000s are always welcome!

What is a dual GBU-12/22 bomb though :D

 

I assume twin rack for either GBU-12 or GBU-22...

 

The GBU-22 is the little 500lb brother of the TV-guided GBU-24, no?

Is anybody but the French airforce using them?

 

If you model a D, do not put a pitot on the nose... seems the artist was not sure himself :D

Is there any intention by Kinetic to broaden up their Mirage III/5 range by introducing the Mirage 5BA/BD/BR/Elkan variants? I know Wingman Models did the Mirage 5BA but is already out of production and with a price tag that commoners like me could not afford.

I propose to ask this in a proper Mirage III thread....

 

The Mirage 2000 is a completely different plane, but from the same manufacturer ;)

FYI FFSMC proposes possibility to customize your decals sheet: from a generic markings sheet of Mirage 2000 two-seater versions, you can send pictures of the plane you have chosen your choice and the sheet will be completed with specific insignia, s/n and immatriculation! Available for 1/72, 1/48 and 1/32 scales.

The old grey cells have been stirring, didn't Italeri issue this or something similar a few years ago?

Still always good to see another Mirage.

I also assume it will be the identical plastic (i.e. two seater Mirage plus Skunkworks wepaons pack (that is best to be used for stretching sprue etc,,)) Decals will be different it seems!

 

and yes good to see it being re-released! 👍

Can you point me (and others) at a way to get these please. I'd certainly like a set in 48th and if you do other subjects then so much the better.
