Just saw on another news site where the French have retired the Mirage 2000C today.

 

Vive le Mirage!

Yes indeed!

E.g. here:

It is supposed to at least make a flight on Jul. 14th,  Bastille day !

 

And keep in mind that the trainer B models, as well as D and -5 will continue to operate fortunately!

 

 

Weapons wise it was rather obsolete and mostly a QRA asset, training jet, and bomb/ support truck on African operations.

Oh, I can see that black scheme appearing on a model soon (and shortly thereafter appearing in my stash!)

 

It's never been an aircraft that grabbed my attention that much but it looks amazing in that black Mission Accomplie livery!
