FSX/P3D Dassault Mirage IIIB Complete Pack

A complete pack featuring the Dassault Mirage IIIB for Microsoft Flight Simulator X and Prepar3D (all versions).  This pack is a complete bundle including FSX-specific models along with Prepar3D (64-bit) models compatible with the latest P3D version.  Also included are 21 repaints to really give you countless options and liveries to fly with this stunning aircraft.

Developed by freeware developer Restauravia and with repaints from many different repaint developers, this pack is quite possibly the best Dassault Mirage IIIB pack available for both FSX and P3D (even the latest P3Dv5).

This pack offers a highly detailed and authentic rendition of the iconic French aircraft, tailored for both Microsoft Flight Simulator X (FSX) and all versions of Prepar3D, including the latest 64-bit v5. This comprehensive package provides flight simulation enthusiasts with a versatile and realistic flying experience that caters to different simulation platforms.

FSX and Prepar3D (P3D) are both popular flight simulation platforms, but they do have some differences. FSX, developed by Microsoft, has been a staple in the flight simulation community for many years, providing a rich and immersive environment for virtual pilots. On the other hand, P3D, developed by Lockheed Martin, builds on the foundations of FSX and offers a more modern, 64-bit architecture that allows for better performance, stability, and advanced features.

The Dassault Mirage IIIB Complete Pack is designed to be compatible with both platforms, ensuring seamless integration and an enjoyable experience for all users.

One of the standout features of the pack is the inclusion of 21 meticulously crafted repaints and liveries. These stunning visual designs are based on real-world operations of the aircraft, providing a sense of authenticity and immersion that avid flight simulation enthusiasts are sure to appreciate. Each livery showcases the unique history and identity of various military air forces that have operated the Mirage IIIB, adding depth and variety to the user's virtual hangar.

Included is full documentation available in English and French outlining the aircraft and how to operate it in the simulators.  It's essentially a full flight guide with instructions, diagrams, and details.

About the Dassault Mirage IIIB

The Dassault Mirage IIIB is a distinct variant of the renowned French Mirage III series, specifically designed as a two-seater operational conversion trainer aircraft. First taken to the skies in 1959, the Mirage IIIB became an essential tool for training pilots in the intricacies of flying and operating the single-seat Mirage III fighters.

Retaining the key performance characteristics of the Mirage III, the IIIB variant incorporated a stretched fuselage to accommodate the second seat while maintaining the distinctive delta wing design. With its reliable SNECMA Atar 09C turbojet engine, the Mirage IIIB ensured a smooth transition for pilots from training to operational missions, cementing its place in aviation history.
