Modelsvit 1/72 Mirage 4000 72053

The Mirage 4000 was a prototype fighter developed by the French aircraft manufacturer Dassault in the late 1970s for the large fighter market. The F-14 and F-15 were its sales rivals, and were considered to be expensive from the start of their development. The twin-engined aircraft was based on the Mirage 2000, and it had a bubble canopy and canard wing. The empty weight was increased by 74% compared to the Mirage 2000, it had a total of 11 hard points, and it carried 2.5 times the payload. It used fly-by-wire technology, and it was thought that its high performance and new technology would make it desirable for export and domestic use. Its first flight was taken in March 1979, but the limited market for large-scale, expensive aircraft was limited, so only one prototype was completed.
