Restauravia Dassault Mirage IIIB Released

**Mach3DS** · May 21st, 2013, 08:18

Thanks Zsolt!

Here's A3-105 (the one at Darwin) in its final form with a temporary green/brown camo scheme applied for Exercise Pitch Black in early 1984, and that it was wearing when it went down. I've redone the spec files, redrawn most of the stencil work and scalloped the camo paint margins. It's just a pity there's not a genuine IIID to hang these RAAF skins on. Still this is a beautiful freeware add-on! Cheers to Restauravia!

That looks great Dave. Way back in January 2008 J.E. Narcizo released a IIIBE (or IIID like you need) as part of a IIIE package. It was for FS2004 though. But it is the correct engine and nose.

Thanks Frank. I agree the nose is more accurate but the BE retains the fin extension of the B. Ah well, such is the life of a rivet counter.....!

PS - I'll try to put this out tomorrow

For anyone wanting external camera views cut and paste the following to the bottom of the aircraft.cfg file. No dramatic viewing angles here and I can't claim credit. I found them in a French language forum discussing the IIIB.

To be pedantic

, wouldn't that be the Mirage 50 and the different upgrades with canards?

***huub vink*** · June 18th, 2013, 02:05

Thanks for th3e HU Frank! Great news there are not many jet I fly, but this will definitely be one of them.

The Mirage IIIC is the fighter version of the Mirage III (C stands for "Chasse" (Fighter). Its shorter than the other versions.
The Mirage 50 is a simplified version of the Mirage IIIE (bomber version).

I find the IIIC much more sexy although its performances were a little bit below the subsequent versions. I think the Canards don't fit the pure lines of the Mirage III. Of course, its a very subjective opinion.

**FentiFlier1** · June 18th, 2013, 03:38

I'm always amazed how quite small details can change the esthetic "character" of a plane, if you see what I mean.

Personally, I'm attracted by the slim nose of the Mirage 5 family. Same with the Mirage F1, I prefer the slimmer F1A.
