Mirage F-1: Fleet Defender!

[ValAstur 1,294]

What if, Avions Marcel Dassault simply had plugged a tailhook to the F-1?

 

I guess the result could have looked like this:

 

Mirage F-1CM200, 12F Flottille, R99 Foch, 1980

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

or like this:

 

Mirage F-1CM200, 11F Flottille, R99 Foch, 1980

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks to Stratos for his idea!

Nice work

Very cool idea and beautiful job on the aircraft. The beefy landing gear on the F1 always reminded me of a naval aircraft.

The Mirage F-1 for the French Navy was a real project...

That one is also looking great.

 

A pity that the F-1 has not been navalized.

Looks great!

Gonna have to see if I could add a simple tailhook on the model, but there arent any free animation slots i think. Love the overall blue camo tho!

Hey that would be really great!

 

Can't the hook be modded as a fourth component of the landing gear?
