Recommended Posts

Shahak (removed Cyrano radar)


Requirements:
SF2I (obligatory)
AI Plane Pack 1 (for Mirage 5DE AI squadron in campaign)

 

Historical background:
After the six-day war the IDF recognized the Cyrano radar as ineffective and troublesome in exploitation.For this reason radiolocator was removed from all Shahaks and replaced by ballast.

 

This mod inludes two additional modified variants of Mirage IIICJ. They are both based on stock SF2I Shahaks with some necessary changes in plane and cockpit *.ini files and cockpit textures.

 

In this pack you will find:
1. Shahak (without cyrano)
- Atar 9B engine;
- Removed Cyrano radar;
- Removed radar scope from cockpit;
- Removed the ability to use Yahalom missile.
2. Shahak (71/without cyrano)
- Atar 9C engine;
- Removed Cyrano radar;
- Removed radar scope from cockpit;
- Removed the ability to use Yahalom missile.
3. Modified stock Yom-Kippur campaign (it will not replace defaul one)
- Radars removed from all Shahaks in campaign;
- Added Libyan Mirage 5DE AI squadron.

Curious. When the Fuerza Aérea Argentina buy this jets in 1982(19 IIICJ and 3 IIIBJ), all were delivered with the Cyrano, between Dec 1982 and Feb 1983.

Of course, nobody had utilised the radar by the FAA, but was still there.

Maybe the IDF/AF had re-installed again the Cyrano before the delivery.
