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

      View File Mirage F1EE ALR
      Mirage F1EE_ALR
      This mod is dedicated to BPAO, nothing would have been possible without him.
      In June 1975, with tension growing with Morocco, Spain decided to strengthen its Air Force and bought 15 Mirage F1C that were allocated to Albacete AB. In mid-1976 there was still some tension with Morocco and Algerian and Libyan MiG-25 flights on the Mediterranean, which would lead the Spanish Air Force to purchase ten more Mirage F1C and two years later order 48 Mirage F1C and F1E.
      F1EE_ALR specifics:
      Same as EE_Late except:
      - RWR AN/ALR-300 installed instead of RWR BF - 6 aircraft were modified
      Covered units :
      Ala 14.
      This addon is and will in all cases remain freeware.
      Released under CombatAce Fair-Use terms.
      Enjoy
