1:72 MIRAGE 2000C

The Italeri Mirage 2000C brings the lines of the French single-seat air superiority fighter into a 1:72 scale aircraft model kit with a finished length of 19.9 cm. Its delta wing layout gives the completed build the unmistakable profile that made the Mirage 2000 family a reference point in French aircraft production. This assembly kit is built as a hands-on modelling project, with a stated assembly time of 600 minutes. The subject reflects an aircraft that entered service in the early 1980s and combined the familiar delta-wing configuration with major technical updates over earlier French fighters. In service form, the Mirage 2000C used a SNECMA afterburning turbofan engine and reached Mach 2.2, details that give the finished model a strong connection to the real aircraft's role and performance. Decals for 3 versions open up different marking paths, including French and UAE aircraft schemes shown in the reference material. On the bench, the kit suits careful painting, decal placement and final detailing around the airframe and stores. Once completed, the 1:72 format sits neatly in a modern jet collection, whether displayed as a standalone aircraft or placed into a Gulf War era aviation lineup.
