Mirage III & Nesher Gun Sight Fix.


Mirage III and Nesher Gun Sight Fix.

This mod corrects the Stock Third Wire Gun Sights for the Mirage IIICJ Shahak, Mirage IIICJ Shahak (71), Nesher and as a bonus the DLC 17 RAAF Mirage fighters.

I recently read the Osprey book Israeli 'Mirage and Nesher Aces' and 'Mirage III vs Mig-21 Six Day War 1967.' Both books are full of gun camera images of Israeli Mirage IIICJ and Nesher fighters killing MIGs.

From these I realised Third Wire has made an error on all the Mirage gun sights by aligning the (horizontally elongated) aircraft reference cross with the gun bore-sight and thus the gun piper. In the Nesher and Mirage IIIO that leaves the actual gun bore-sight cross sitting above the gun piper doing nothing.

This mod corrects the position and alignment of the aircraft reference cross, gun piper and gun bore-sight cross (Nesher and Mirage IIIO).

This correction should be applied to any other version of Mirage III, Mirage 5, Nesher or Dagger you have that uses a Third Wire Mirage cockpit and/ or Mirage gun sight.

CombatAce fair use agreement applies.

Cheers,

Dan.

Do you have a modified AVIONICS.ini file for the aircraft? The symbols on my cockpit HUD are TINY! :blind:

No but it sounds like you haven't put the cockpit folder with the modified .tga files in the right place

      Would some sort of gunsight on the earlier Nieuports be a good idea? I am not sure if the N11 cockpit in the picture is an upgraded N11 from later in the war.

      This mod is dedicated to BPAO, nothing would have been possible without him.
      Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force seized 24 F1BQs and F1EQs flown over from Iraq, during the 1991 Persian Gulf War. As of December 2021, 12 Mirage F1EQs and 5 Mirage F1BQs were in service.
      This mod is not 100% accurate, Iran used all the EQ versions but for more simplicity we decided to use only one version, the EQ-5, to cover all the IRIAF aircrafts.
      There is not a lot of informations about the Iranian Mirage, so we did our best to make a realistic aircraft.
      Based on Iraqi F1EQ-5 v4.0.1 mod with the following changes:
      all the original Iraqi weapons and pods have been disabled as Iran did not get any of those P7 and sidewinder compatibility added (instead of R550) F5 tanks (underwings stations only) instead of original F1 RP35 US bombs and rockets. Another data.ini version is provided for russians bombs and rockets use instead of US. Covered unit :
      102sd TFS
