Mirage F-1


Recommended Posts

  • Finn changed the title to Mirage F-1

that's got to be the biggest external fuel tank to aircraft size surely ?? It looks massive.  The F1 is a bit like the Jaguar, they both deserve 1/32 IM treatment.  The french have designed some of the best looking aircraft ever, but balanced with some of the worst.

If I remember well, that huge fuel tank (2200l) was initally designed for the Iraki Mirage F1 but never delivered due to we all know what...

 

As a result, French AF kept them for use below the F1 CT version mainly.

They were nicknamed the "Iraki tank".

 

They were sold to ATACs along with the plane.
