Dassault Mirage: libri illustrati di storia e guide

The Dassault Mirage - The Combat Log

This is the first book ever to chronicle in detail all of the Mirage III, 5, F1 and 2000 aircraft and specifically their use in combat operations from the Middle East to the South Atlantic, the Persian Gulf to the steaming jungles of Ecuador and Peru.

With well over three million flight hours since 1961, the Mirage has seen more combat than any present day jet fighter, including action in the Six-Days War, the Falklands, the Gulf War and many other lesser known conflicts.

Superb color photography is combined with detailed text including squadron histories, and Mirage pilot narratives from Israel, Argentina, South Africa,Iraq and others.

Mirage en mission - du combat canon aux frappes spécialisées

From the Mirage IIIC, the first French interceptor of the Mach 2 class delivered in 1961, to the Mirage 2000D, the all-weather attack version engaged on Afghanistan, Mirage fighter jets have profoundly marked the history of the Air Force until today.
A technological epic, that of the Mirage fighters built by Dassault, combat aircraft with marvellous flying qualities, associated with increasingly efficient weapon systems, making it possible to conduct flights in all weather conditions and at long distances thanks to in-flight refuelling. A human adventure too, that of the generations of "knights of the sky" who, sometimes at the risk of their lives, have led these machines to the assault of the sky.

Pagine del libro "Mirage en mission - du combat canon aux frappes spécialisées"

Through the various missions of the air units, the authors of this book, both specialists in combat aviation, guide you on an illustrated journey into the heart of the cockpits. From daily training to multinational exercises and the most complex real-world operations, this book provides insight into why a fighter jet takes off and how young pilots or navigators become able to guide their machine through the most challenging missions and, if necessary, deliver their armament accurately and efficiently.
In addition to the photos and stories collected during their respective careers as fighter pilots and aviation journalists, the authors have collected testimonies from crews and many previously unseen images putting into perspective five decades of technological and tactical evolution.
