Dassault Mirage IV

rdfs:comment

The Mirage IV was first flown by Dassault test pilot Roland Glavanny on 17th June 1959, it was equipped with fly-by-wire controls. On the 33rd test flight the Mirage IV reached Mach 2 for the first time. The prototype crashed on 13th February 1963. The Mirage IVA entere service in 1964, the French Air Force ordered 50 units and later 12 additional, the aircraft were built in Bordaux-Merignac. The first time the Mirage IV used a nuclear weapon was on a test mission ( Operation Tamoure ) on 19th July 1966 in the South-pacific. The Dassault Mirage IV was a French jet-propelled supersonic strategic bomber and deep-reconnaissance aircraft. Developed by Dassault Aviation, the aircraft entered service with the French Air Force in October 1964. For many years it was a vital part of the nuclear triad of the Force de Frappe, France's nuclear deterrent striking force. The Mirage IV was retired from the nuclear strike role in 1996, and the type was entirely retired from operational service in 2005.

n23:abstract

The Dassault Mirage IV was a French jet-propelled supersonic strategic bomber and deep-reconnaissance aircraft. Developed by Dassault Aviation, the aircraft entered service with the French Air Force in October 1964. For many years it was a vital part of the nuclear triad of the Force de Frappe, France's nuclear deterrent striking force. The Mirage IV was retired from the nuclear strike role in 1996, and the type was entirely retired from operational service in 2005. During the 1960s, there were plans of export sales for the Mirage IV; in one proposal, Dassault would have entered a partnership with the British Aircraft Corporation to jointly produce a Mirage IV variant for the Royal Air Force and potentially for other export customers, however this project did not come to fruition. The Mirage IV was ultimately not adopted by any other operators beyond the French Air Force. The Mirage IV was first flown by Dassault test pilot Roland Glavanny on 17th June 1959, it was equipped with fly-by-wire controls. On the 33rd test flight the Mirage IV reached Mach 2 for the first time. The prototype crashed on 13th February 1963. The Mirage IVA entere service in 1964, the French Air Force ordered 50 units and later 12 additional, the aircraft were built in Bordaux-Merignac. The first time the Mirage IV used a nuclear weapon was on a test mission ( Operation Tamoure ) on 19th July 1966 in the South-pacific. In May 1986, 18 ( after an accident another one ) modified Mirage IV entered service, because the Mirage 2000N, which was primarly designed to carry the ASMP cruise missile, would enter service to late. The new Mirage IV P aircraft where modified to fly at low altitudes and they were equipped with more advanced avionics and Electronic Warfare systems. The Mirage IV remained in active service until 4th July 1996, the time the fleet was replaced by the Mirage 2000N.
