Usage in battles

The most effective way of using the Mirage F1C-200 in Air Realistic battles is to play a support role, targeting slow or distracted enemies with your powerful air-to-air missiles. Try to avoid entering the furball as the Mirage F1C-200 has poor manoeuvrability and low top speed. It is recommended to avoid 1-vs-1 dogfights unless absolutely necessary due to the poor manoeuvrability and acceleration of the aircraft.

The Mirage F1C-200 can also be used as a strike aircraft with its bombs and rockets and transition to a fighter role after dropping its ordnance.

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Availability of Matra Super 530F and Matra R550 Magic 2 air-to-air missiles
  • The Cyrano-IV radar allows low-altitude Pulse-Doppler (MTI) and ACM modes, an upgrade from the previous Mirages (IIIE & IIIC)
  • Carries 252 countermeasures
  • Large amount of bombs and rockets

Cons:

  • Very slow acceleration with ordnance
  • Poor manoeuvrability at low and high speeds with only "workable" agility at medium speeds
  • The Matra Super 530F missiles are very heavy and strongly impact flight performance
  • 30 mm DEFA cannons are difficult to use, particularly against high-speed targets

History

The Mirage F1C-200 is essentially a Mirage F1C with an air-refuelling probe. The addition of the air-refuelling probe also extended the length of the fuselage by 7 cm. Some Mirage F1C-200s also received a GPS in the 1990s. These F1C-200s were intended for long expeditionary missions and saw combat in places like Africa and the Middle East. During the early 1980s, Mirage F1C-200s provided air cover for SEPECAT Jaguars performing attack runs against the Libyan-backed insurgency in Chad. A few years later, the F1C-200s and Jaguars were redeployed again to Chad until 1992, when the government was overthrown. Mirage F1C-200s were also present in the United Arab Emirates during the Gulf War to supplement air defense with Qatari Mirage F1EDAs. The Iraqis took the refuelling probes from the Mirage F1C-200s they had acquired and fitted them on their MiG-23s.
