The Dassault Mirage 5 is a single-engine, single-seat supersonic strike aircraft developed from the Mirage IIIE. Originally designed for Israel with reduced avionics and increased internal fuel for extended range, it was later adopted by the Armée de l’Air as the Mirage 5F after export restrictions. In the 1990s, Pakistan operated 33 Mirage 5F aircraft, with 14 upgraded under the ROSE program, adding modern avionics, FLIR, countermeasures, and advanced cockpit systems for night strike missions. In 1979, Chile acquired modified Mirage 5F aircraft re-engined with the Snecma Atar 9K-50, designated Mirage 50FC, featuring enlarged intakes and aerodynamic improvements.
This conversion set allows accurate modelling of Mirage 5F, 50FC, 5J, Nesher, Dagger, and ROSE II/III variants.
