Let’s have a look at the Mirage 2000D RMV, an upgraded version of the strike variant of the Mirage family of aircraft and one of its most modern variants currently in service.
Mirage 2000D RMV: A Strike Fighter for France at Rank VIII
At a glance:
- Top speed of Mach 2.
- Access to advanced missiles.
- Large caliber laser bombs.
- HMD
In an effort to modernize the Mirage 2000 and extend its service life, Dassault launched the ‘Rénovation Mi-Vie’ (RMV) program in 2015. As part of the program, the Mirage 2000D RMV received updated avionics and was enabled to carry GBU-48 and GBU-50 guided bombs. Although demonstrator had been built by and exhibited at the 2017 Paris Air Show, the conversion of the first operational aircraft to the RMV standard started in 2019, the first aircraft was delivered 2021 and test flights were conducted shortly afterwards by the Air Force. The Mirage 2000D RMV subsequently entered service in 2022 with 55 aircraft being upgraded to this standard.
Meet the Mirage 2000D RMV!
The Mirage 2000D RMV is on its way to the top rank of the French aviation tree in the Firebirds major update, becoming the most advanced strike aircraft available. Building on the airframe of the Mirage 2000D, the RMV modification brings with it key upgrades to the Mirage’s strike capabilities, further increasing its effectiveness against ground targets. Let’s take a closer look!
Representing a direct upgrade of the Mirage 2000D-R1, the RMV modification inherits much of its key characteristics from its predecessor. As such, the aircraft maintains superb flight characteristics, thanks to its delta wing design as well as the powerful SNECMA ATAR M53 afterburning turbofan engine. This combination in particular enables the Mirage 2000 to retain excellent maneuverability, representing a signature feature of the Mirage family of aircraft.
Unlike the R1 variant which precedes it, the Mirage 2000D RMV is specially outfitted to accommodate the installation of the more advanced GBU-48, GBU-49 & GBU-50 guided bombs, which most prominently feature GPS guidance in addition to the traditional laser guidance system.
Apart from these new weapon options, the Mirage 2000D RMV also retains some more familiar faces in its arsenal, such as conventional 250 kg bombs, MATRA rockets or the BGL-400 and BGL-1000 laser guided bombs. Lastly, the aircraft can also be equipped with the new CC-422 gunpod which houses a single 30 mm DEFA 553 cannon. All in all, these upgrades further increase the Mirage’s lethality against ground targets and thus make it a must-have in any top tier Ground Battle lineup.
That’s it for this one! The Mirage 2000D RMV is on final approach and is expected to arrive in the Firebirds major update. In the meantime, make sure to keep a close watch on the news for other dev blogs that we’ve got planned!
Please note that this vehicle’s characteristics may be changed before it is added to the game.

The Mirage 2000D RMV is introduced too early... Can't get access to MICA IR for now, doesn't get the twin wing bomb racks that have been reported, doesn't get the terrain following radar, doesn't get the TALIOS pod... All these issue have been reported and either didn't get fixed or are too early to be introduced. The Magic 2 doesn't even get buffs for the occasion while there is still a lot of reports to pick from to improve the Magic 2. Honestly a deceiving addition.
Advanced missiles(Magic 2)
Based on how it looked in the dev server, I don’t really see much of an advantage of this aircraft in game over just using the Mirage 2000-5F, even for ground attack. Nice looking model, but functionally redundant.
sooooo, no Auf2 double bomb pylon, no gbu 16/22, no 4 bomb pylon, no thalios TGP, no A2G radar, no mk82ep, no bap 100, no bat120/120lg. i hope that the mirage 2000's will get atleast half of those things (auf2, 4 bomb pylon, bap/bat bombs are accessible to all mirage's irl)
Why does in not get AASM hammer? It’s one of the main air to ground weapons that France uses (on Rafale and 2000D RMV). And it’s not something that would be really overpowered. Because it’s basically a IR guided skipper (on the rocket booster bomb A-6 tram) with a bit more range.
As most CAS plane that are not american or russian, the plane is dead on arrival. There is absolutely nothing that justify a higher Air Realistic Battle rating than what the 2000DR1 is at actually. It has the same missiles, a gun pod with 1 less canon (+half the ammo) and only a new HMD. Concerning CAS, it has the same volume of cas and number of kill possible than the 5F, no mention of the new type of hardpoint helping it carrying more bomb (reported) or the new small laser bomb (BAT120LG...
DOA, no internal gun and no MICA. Literally no point in grinding this when the 2000-5F is better. Yea the GPS bomb gimmick but not worth the grind. Sorry Gaijin effort could’ve been shifted towards implementing a ground based squadron vehicle or a useful high tier premium for France.
no surprise !!! it has No Mica IR. But im sure if it was in Russia`s Tree it comes with its Mica IR !!! No Surprise again.
"The Sword of Damocles is hanging over my head!" Lol. On a more serious note; something about the Mirages and how they fly appeals to me so seeing a new one added makes me happy. Played the dev server and I'm actually looking forward to a couple of the coming additions. Although the implementation of MICA-IRs aren't set in stone, I sincerely do hope the people who are able to add them see the demand there is. Happy to see a new Mirage nonetheless!
