Not to be confused with Dassault Mirage 2000.

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 HOTAS 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 Mirage 2000-5 Mark 2 , the most advanced of all Mirage 2000s.

How to fire a guided missile

Select your missile on the graphical MFD, with the top button of the left series button.
Then, select your weapon mode with w (cycles through nothing, guns, missiles)
Press ⇧ Shift+r to activate radar illumination.
Acquire your target.
Fire with e.

Note Missile here are guided. There are lot a different missile, more than what the 2000-5 can carry. It's due to the missile's script, and its future adaption on other aircraft.

Caution It is a bad idea to fire a missile while under negative G.

Refueling

Thanks to Fguk's team who worked on the A330-MRTT, the 2000-5 can refuel with it, as an AI, instead of the KA-6.

When Flightgear gives you the TACAN, you can enter it in the MFD screen (watch the how to video), and then, use both radar and the tacan

Only on mirage 2000-5 feature : in french air force, refuelling is always at 22 000 feets.

Radar and HUD

The Radar have 5 distances, (10, 20 50,100, 150) wich can be switched with t. This radar can identify multiple spot and show their level (with only 2 digits) The HUD show both potential target and actual target. It also show if the gear are out, show the ground alt if this on is bellow 5,000 feet, and show mach only if spedd > mach 0.8

Development

Changelog 2015-02

3D :

Several more instrument in the cockpit. The working ones are : startup instrument, light variator instruments.(The others, I'm still working on it)
New gun explosion : more realistics
New missiles explosion : more realistics
New flames that take differents colors, depending of the sun position
New light effect in the cockpit when using Rembrandt.
New rule about each instruments lights effects
Possibility to disable the pilot.
Desactivate temporary the "non Rembrandt Shadow" that have big issue in MP (and do not allow a correct dogfight)
New "Exhaust"
Separated livery & logos (that allow differents HQ logos independently of the livery)

Systems :

Double center Mfd for the guys who want (or not) the canvas one. The older is now working lot more better.
Working startup procedure
Working cockpit light variator
Utilisation of the <usage> tag

Weapons :

Ground designation : This now possible to create a "ground target", by clicking on the ground and then clicking at the "Create a Target" in "Mirage 2000 > Fast Config" menu.

Nasal :

Lot of improvement by using a centralised function lanch and update instead of setListener or multiple different loop. This should invisble to the user except that their FPS will stay high
Loads are now visible over MP

What was done on the precedent changelog 201308

A specific and clicable autopilot (see video)
multi screen MFD
Radio management on mfd
An mfd EICAS
Cockpit general graphics are improved.
A weapons selection on mfd (wich make the numpad free)
Better sound, missile script improved (Working aiming missiles)
working alert panel
a clock

And lot of other stuff not listed here...

Futures Objectives on the precedent changelog 201308

Add more clicable instruments- On going (even if some are done)
Make the start procedure more realistic Done. (Ill add check list later)
Complete the Alert Panel- On going (60%)
Make a better HUD -> Use canvas (To make multiple Hud, for example, draw a runway on the HUD while landing with low visibility...) -Not Yet
Throttle stick,gear green/red light, Jettison all button. On going (even if some are done)
Checklist
Add some "ground" feature. Not Yet
Improve the missile script. On going
Put sound on missiles. Not Yet
Make the loads visibles in mp. Done
Make the RWR work. Not Yet
Put Missiles on a generic folder. Not Yet
increase visual on missiles. Not Yet
Correct the radar issue due to the generic function radardist and multiplayer ATC. Done

make high resolution liveries (But keep the old ones). Done
Increase the FDM (correction of some strange behaviour).Done (Roll limitation have been added)

Make a working ECM ...(Not yet....missiles has to be reworked first)

And more...

Thanks

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.
