French Mirage fighterjets is long been combat tested in battle and while Russia Sukhois or SU is never been tested in battle

[@MartinMaarva]

Do you mean tested like when the French bomb some camels in the desert. Ukraine Airforce was destroyed within hours so the Russians could not test the the planes against flying opponent but Ukraine inherited a shitload of air defense systems, no Nato country could claim a better anti air protection, so the russian planes are being tested every day.

[@williamalfonso1373]

@@MartinMaarva How can the Ukranian airforce have been destroyed "within hours". When that same airforce has contested the Ukranian airspace for a year plus.

[@MartinMaarva]

@@williamalfonso1373 About 60 to 70% were destroyed within minutes. It is a large country with many airports and many other repair and maintenance facilities. They had hundreds of planes, even more older airframes, a lot of spares and also some donations from abroad. The surviving and repaired rest is being hunted as soon as airborne. Ukrainian airforce was not contesting anything, especially not any airspace over Ukraine. The air defence is but another story, Ukrainians inherited shitloads of air defences from Soviet Union. You can put together anti air capabilities of France, UK and Germany together, multiply it by ten and it still would be a far cry from what Ukraine had. You can also add several thousands of handheld missiles donated to Ukraine. That is the force that keeps the Ukrainian skies relatively clear. The issue is that these defences are mostly depleted now, Russians are picking them apart one by one and soon there will be none left.

Hey! You kept switching between views of the Mirage 2000, which is delta winged, and the Mirage F1 which is absolutely NOT delta winged. Do you think we're idiots?

[@hellboystein2926]

Not 'perfect' for the long range interdiction role, because of the 'short' range of the MICA Missile(~80km), but it can do CAS, bombing,.. quite well and the Mica is still of use for some 'potshots' when you actually ancounter an other russian flying deep under the radar like you do yourselfs. So: NO substitute for a F-16/18 with AIM-120D or a Gripen/Eurofighter with Meteor, but still a worhwhile beginning!

[@sidharth7522]

Mica is short range? Stop talking out of your ass. It’s more than enough to engage the Russians and F16’s. Mirage 2000 is way too powerful for F16s. They’re not great for CAS. They’re mostly useful for interception, their delta wings make it a world class dog fighter. Couple that with laser guided ground attacks, the do real well in stand-off missions.

[@crazyjarjar4894]

I agree that this is a start, but saying F16/F18 or a Gripen/Eurofighter would be the best, that would greatly depend which block version that will be sent. Because if the ones sent are from storage, then it would be some old planes, which would not be ideal. And I doubt any country would send their latest planes for multiple reasons

[@hellboystein2926]

@@crazyjarjar4894 Hello Jar, i am not THAT of a Datasheet crack that i can EXACTL say what new Radar-Sets, EW-Jammers, Datalink-features,... this or that newer F-16 or F-18 Block can do that a older F-16 or F-18c/d can't but as I can find out on google is that a Gripen C/D supports Meteor, a F-18c/d like the Spanish, Canadian, Finnish,.. use it, at LEAST a AIM-120C, Tranche-1 Eurofighter deto, so they at least would have more reach than a Mica and contrary to the R-27 on there current Mig-29 a active Radar-seeker, with no need to illuminate the target with the fighters own Radar until the rocket hits.

[@Bluelagoonstudios]

In the 70s we saw them fly over on a regular basis, going through the sound barrier, we didn't have yet a sound barrier break law. It was a magnificent sight to see these, you could easily see that they were mirages. Because of the distincter shape. These are quite old jets, and I'm not sure if they will be a step-up for Ukraine. But the suggestion is all that counts, right?

[@col.waltervonschonkopf69]

Mirage 2000s should be good enough to go toe to toe with the Russian Air Force. India still operates Mirage 2000s and they are one of their trusted planes.

[@olivierpuyou3621]

The Mirage 2000 C for Chasse (hunting) is above all an interceptor designed in the 70s/80s, these systems are quite old and I am not really convinced that it is really a game changer. On the other hand, even an "old" Mirage is better than nothing at all. Anyway I heard that Ukrainians were training since July for JTAC procedures, so...

​@@marcg1686 Ukraine needs modern ground attack platforms or fox-3 capable jets with missiles of a longer range than R-27 for air defense and interceptions and the mirage's 530D is a old and not very capable fox-1 with a range more than 3x less compared to the most modern aim120 and the mirage will need to keep radar lock until that missile hits something a feature of fox-1 or SARH missiles that have made current Ukrainian planes very vulnerable

[@marcg1686]

@@2bidfilmsguy I'm not suggesting that the M2K is an up to date platform in its current state. Nevertheless, it could free up Ukrainian assets and allow them to take on the Russian air force. With upgraded radar and the Meteor missile it would be a good intercepter at high altitude.

[@rajatdani619]

Bro why r u talking to urself? Btw if u think Mirage has Very Good Track record well that mean either u don't know anything about Mirage 2000 or maybe ur country not using one. The Mirage has most expensive maintenance cost ask The Taiwanese who regularly has to send their 2000's for security purpose. And apparently were in talks about selling them for this reason. While in Libya many French jets just Crashed because of normal military use.(Reconaisance/intel gathering role). So Ys they are good but not as much as people think.

[@oleksandraverchenko9920]

Ukraine needs aircraft that employ long-range air-to-air, air-to-ground, and air-to-ship armaments. Mirages are comparable to Mig-29 UAF in terms of capabilities but might introduce maintenance challenges. On the other hand, Ukraine is short in air defenses, and even limited capability might help against missiles and drones as long as there is a lot of air-to-air missiles to spare.

[@Jayclark41]

Well they can be uograded for electronically scanned arrays eventually opening the doir for meteors, but most importantly they can use storm shadow cruise missiles and make a very goid delivery playeform that is highly capable of self defense should it meet sny russian hers, also it’s prelium cas against missiles and drones

[@paddyfast]

[@twrandy]

There are 53 M2000-5 in service in Taiwan AF, Taiwan really has a hard time maintaining those fighter jets in good shape, it would be great if France would buy back and sell to Greece or give them for free to Ukraine.... but this is highly unlikely, if not impossible😮‍💨

If its only effective in shooting drones and missiles i think its not worth it as a fighter. Ukraine must choose the Rafale or the Eurofighter typhoon or even the block 70 F16, a technologically advance fighter jet that can tackle the latest 5th generation russian fighters.

radar - 90 miles ? Does that mean that Mirage2000 cant see the enemy further than 90 miles ??? We all know that Orcs shoot down SU25 from about 220km. There will be a lot of extreme low-altitude training for hit and run missions. However, it can guard the space, it can shoot down cruise missiles and drones, it can bomb... Well, God speed Ukis. PS tbh I think Ukr pilots performed better on Mirages than on F16 (some colonel from AF explained something about "muscle memory" and that pilot trained on soviet equipment gained certain "muscle memory" that can not be erased ever, meaning in some cases it will be better to train completely unexperienced pilot than to train ex-soviet pilot.
