About
The Mirage IIIE is a French Tier 6, Level 10 single-engine delta-wing fighter. It was the first Western European jet to exceed Mach 2 in level flight. This variant features an extended airframe, Cyrano II radar, navigation computer, and optional air-to-ground capability. France exported it to several nations, and it saw combat in conflicts like the Six-Day War and the Falklands .
Playstyle
A cutting-edge delta turn fighter for its tier. It shines in tight, low-speed fights thanks to its high turn authority and responsive missiles (Magic 1/R.530). However, it lacks energy retention, making it vulnerable to boom‑and‑zoom attacks. Excellent RWR keeps you aware of threats.
