Welcome to our new content. As the Weapon Detective, we are investigating modern weapon systems of the Second Cold War. The Weapon Legends is about the older weapon systems. We tell their epic stories, which made them a legend. The Weapon Legends investigates these stories, reads between the lines, analyzes, and tells the untold. You can find technical information, historical backgrounds, what happened during the development processes, combat experience and political projection. Let the wisdom of history show us what the future will be. Let’s investigate the veteran weapons of the past together.

Rafale and Mirage 2000 are excellent aircrafts that aren't talked enough about by common folks... your video gives it justice

[charliebowman]

I love the Gripen 39, The Viggen 37, The Eurofigther Typhoon, but nobody beats Dassault jetfigthers. Mirages and Rafale are the state of the art flying machines. Great video.

[knc]

It is one of the favourites of the Indian Air Force

[Mauros-Lykos]

The most beautiful airplane in the Hellenic arsenal. And with new weapons like the scalp, still quite deadly…

Thanks for reuploading this video. The incident in 1996 is too sad. Turkey and Greece should be more sensitive to this type of incident. War is not a game. It would be a catastrophe for both countries. Hi to our Greek brothers from Turkey.

Mirage 2000 is on top of my favorites list ✅

[jacobzimmermann]

Mirage is the greatest name ever for a fighter jet.

[rbrtjbarber]

The Mirage deltas are my favorite foreign jet fighter aircraft.

[KentAJDK]

Great infomativ video as always 😊. But it could be awesome, if you could includ the sound of the plans flying in your videos. Just a fly and sound part within your video. I would love that. ❤

While on development, the Peruvian Air Force ordered 26 Mirage 2000, 24 single seat and 2 double seat, but in 1985 the new Peruvian elected government reduced the numbers to 12 in total, 10 single seat and two double seat, negotiating with other countries the unsold 14. That decision was later very costly because Ecuador started a new war and Peru lost soviet made SU-22, Canberra’s British made bombers, etc, at the hands of another delta wing the Israel’s made Kfir. So far, the 12 planes have been upgraded and very good keep, and more likely will continue flying along with MIG-29s as the front runners to defend the Peruvian airspace

Great airplane, flies great, I really enjoyed it.

[wiktorberski]

A magnificent aircraft with beautiful line

[amarjeetbadhani]

JAI HIND 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Extremely good video..

[robertstadler]

Delta wing fighters are just beautiful 😍.
Atlas Cheetah, Mirage 3 & 2000!

[ronjon]

A fine looking aircraft, from a fine looking family. So easy on the eyes it’s hard to not simply stare, taking it all in.

[prashanthb]

This aircraft is the favourite fighter jet of Indian Airforce.

The Mirage 2000 remains a pretty modern aircraft and would do marvels in Ukraine, instead of being stored without a future. The sending of these aircraft should be considered. By now we all understood that the US are dragging their feet the more they can about sending the F-16. Besides, it is becoming clear to everyone that the US wants the Ukrainian Defence to be an European matter, not American as they are preparing to face China. We in the EU must be ready and do our utmost; not even the US can face ruzzia and China at the same time.
The only occasion the US Army fought the Chinese Army was in the Korean war. Despite facing light Infantry only and having Air Supremacy the Americans were initially repelled with heavy casualties. Imagine now.

The Greek pilot probably apologized because it was too easy…

Greek Pilot: "Sorry man, I got carried away..."
