DCS: Mirage F1 Early Access

After more than three years of active development, the DCS: Mirage F1 is now available in Early Access. Aerges Engineering is very excited to bring you this new module and we are sure that it will provide you endless entertainment.

The Mirage F1 is an iconic French fighter from the Cold War era. The module offers the unique experience of flying this powerful 1970s Western aircraft in DCS. Although this aircraft is equipped with piloting aids it requires a skilful hand to fly accurately and maximise its capabilities.

As an all-weather interceptor, the Mirage F1 is equipped with the Cyrano IV-M radar, multiple air and ground modes, and a variety of heat-seeking and radar-guided air-to-air missiles including the AIM-9J, MATRA R550, and MATRA R530. The Mirage F1 is also a capable air-to-ground platform that can be equipped with a large variety of unguided bombs and rockets.

Early Access Features:

• The early access Mirage F1 CE will be available in an almost complete state. As development continues, the other Mirage F1 versions planned include the EE, BE, and M. Some of the most interesting features available at the release date are:
• Professional Flight Model (PFM) based on performance and engineering data of the real aircraft. Situations of high angle of attack and outside the flight envelope behaviour such as stalls and spins which are accurately represented.
• Extensive and detailed simulation of all flight systems:
  • Flight control system, both in its normal electro-hydraulic mode and in degraded modes.
  • SNECMA Atar 9K-50 engine including full envelope, damage, compressor stalls, flameouts and emergency modes.
  • Cyrano IV-M radar, a unique Cold War era radar in DCS.
  • Full Electric system.
  • Detailed Hydraulic system.
  • Fuel system.
  • Navigation suite: Navigation Indicator (IDN), TACAN, VOR and ILS.
  • Autopilot.
  • Radios: TRAP 136 and TRAP 137B.
  • Electromechanical 1970s era Thomson optical sight, a predecessor of present-day HUDs.
  • ALE-40 countermeasure suite.
  • Internal and external lighting.
  • Armament system.
  • RWR.
• Extremely high-quality 3D model, based on blueprints and laser scanning of a real Mirage F1. Includes animations, lights and a damage model.
• Very accurate 6-DOF (Degrees of Freedom) cockpit with realistic and detailed instruments and controls.
• Variety of air-to-air and air-to-ground weapons, some of them not seen before in DCS:
  • Short range IR missiles: MATRA R550 Magic I, AIM-9 J, AIM-9 JULI, AIM-9 B and AIM-9P.
  • Medium range missiles: MATRA R530 IR and EM.
  • Rocket launchers: MATRA F1 and F4.
  • Antirunway Durandal and cluster Belouga bombs.
  • SAMP family of bombs (both free fall and parachute equipped)
  • Laser guided GBU-10, GBU-12 and GBU-16.
  • Other American and Spanish made bombs.
• Sound modeling based on recordings from the real aircraft.
• Extremely realistic flyable simulation of the Mirage F1 CE, EE, BE, and M models. The EE, BE, and M will be released after the initial release of the CE.
• AI models for most other variants of the Mirage F1: C, CT, CR, EQ, EDA…
• A vast variety of liveries for the different countries that operated the aircraft.
• Interactive training and practice missions that will help you gain proficiency in the F1.
• PDF user manual that will give you pilot level understanding of all the systems in the aircraft.
