Mirage 2000 Wall Art — 3 museum-grade prints on the theme. 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. The Dassault Mirage 2000 entered French service in 1984 as a lightweight delta-wing successor to the Mirage III, evolving into a multi-role platform exported to nine air forces. The UAE ordered an upgraded Mirage 2000-9 package in the late 1980s, integrating modern fire-control, stand-off munitions including the Black Shaheen cruise missile derivative, and desert camouflage for Gulf operations. India selected the Dassault Mirage 2000 in the early 1980s to modernise its air-superiority fleet, and the Indian Air Force became the type's first export operator when initial aircraft arrived on 29 June 1985. IAF crews know the single-seat Mirage 2000H and two-seat Mirage 2000TH by the Sanskrit name Vajra — divine thunderbolt — and No.
