Two Dassault Mirage 2000D fighter aircraft of the French Air Force. The Dassault Mirage 2000 is a French multi-role fighter aircraft from Dassault Aviation. The aircraft was the successor to the Dassault Mirage III and thus also bears a strong resemblance externally; technologically, however, it is a completely newly developed aircraft.
