Mirage 2000 — 2 museum-grade prints, engineered to a wall. The Dassault Mirage 2000 programme preserved France's delta-wing fighter tradition while introducing fly-by-wire technology that made the agile single-engine interceptor competitive against heavier F-15 and F-16 alternatives in export markets. Indian Air Force Mirage 2000s performed laser-guided strikes during the 1999 Kargil conflict; Greek and UAE operators kept the type at front-line readiness into the Rafale transition era. The Dassault Mirage 2000C entered French Air Force service in 1984 as a dedicated air-defence interceptor, pairing a pure delta wing with SNECMA M53 power and the RDI pulse-Doppler radar for beyond-visual-range engagements with Matra Super 530D and Magic missiles. Escadron de Chasse 2/5 Île-de-France, stationed at Orange-Caritat in Provence, traces its roots to Free French Squadron 340 formed in Scotland in 1941 and became the final frontline unit operating the Mirage 2000C RDI before disbandment in June 2022.
