Mirage F1CR standard F5/6


Mirage F1CR F5/6 standard

When it became clear that the Mirage F1 was becoming a successful production aircraft, Dassault began investigating the possibility of a dedicated reconnaissance version for its most important client, the French Air Force. However, the escalating cost of fighter aircraft meant that add-on pods for this purpose were a more economical alternative. Many French Air Force aircraft, as well as those of some export clients (such as Iraq's Mirage F1EQ), did indeed have a variety of reconnaissance pods available, which were attached to the underside of the main fuselage. However, the development of a tactical reconnaissance aircraft for the French Air Force continued, and the first Mirage F1CR flew on 20 November 1981.

F1CR F5/F6 standard specifics:

Corail gondolas (P0 station)

  • RWR BF
  • double wingtip position lights
  • Thomson CSF RAPHAEL TH SLAR Side Looking Aiborne Radar Recon Pod (P1 Id on AMCP)
  • ASTAC (Analyseur de Signaux TACtiques) ELINT pod (P3 Id on AMCP

This addon is and will in all cases remain freeware.

Released under CombatAce Fair-Use terms.

Enjoy
