The '''Dassault Mirage 2000-5''' is a French multirole, single-engine fourth-generation jet fighter manufactured by Dassault Aviation. It was designed as a lightweight fighter based on the Mirage III in the late 1970s for the French Air Force (Armée de l'Air). The Mirage 2000 evolved into a multirole aircraft with several variants developed, with sales to a number of nations. The variants include the Mirage 2000N and 2000D strike variants, the improved Mirage 2000-5 and several export variants. Over 600 aircraft were built and it is in service in nine countries as of 2009.
The '''Dassault Mirage 2000-5''' is a French multirole, single-engine fourth-generation jet fighter manufactured by Dassault Aviation. An improvement of the [[Mirage 2000]], it was improved by Thomson-CSF (now Thales Group) in the early 1990s in response to the Mirage 2000's ageing compared to the latest [[F-16]] fighter models.
 
Improvements over the Mirage 2000 include the capability to carry a laser designator pod, new pulse-doppler multi-target radar, new defensive systems, and updated avionics, including a night vision-compatible glass cockpit, wide-angle [[HUD]], and {{Abbr|HOTAS|Hands On Throttle And Stick}} controls.
 
Coming into service with the French Air Force (''Armée de l'Air''), and exported to several countries, Dassault further improved it by creating the {{Wikipedia|Dassault Mirage 2000#Mirage 2000-5 Mark 2|Mirage 2000-5 Mark 2}}, the most advanced of all Mirage 2000s.
