Description

The Dassault Mirage F1 entered service in 1973 as a replacement for the Mirage III.  Although similar in some ways, the F1 had a more conventional wing arrangement which provided a big improvement in performance.

The F1 was a success and like earlier Mirages it saw combat in the Middle East, South America, India, Pakistan, North Africa, and South Africa.

The Mirage F1 is armed with 2 x 30mm cannon, and up 5 pylons for drop tanks, bombs, and missiles including the Sidewinders or Magic R550s and Super F530Fs.

This example is a Mirage F1CT of EC 01/030 Armée de l’air 2007.

What would that odd attachment at the front of the cockpit be used for?
