- Mirage 4000 is a prototype fighter developed by French airplane manufacturer Dassault in the late 1970s at their own expense to enter the large fighter market.
- F-15 and F-14 were regarded as rivals on sales, and were regarded as aircraft that became high-performance and expensive from the beginning of development.
- Based on the Mirage 2000, the engine was made twin, adopted the bubble canopy and canard wing, increased by 74% to empty weight compared with the Mirage 2000, increased the hard point to 11 places, increased the payload by 2.5 times.
- It is also a CCV designed fuselage that adopts fly-by-wire, and it was thought that this machine incorporating high basic performance and state-of-the-art technology would be advantageous for adopting and exporting its own system.
- In the first flight in March 1979, although it was a high performance, the market size itself of the expensive large-sized machine was limited and it ended in one prototype without expectation of export.
- This injection plastic kit comes with etched parts, paint mask seals, two kinds of canopies (opening and closing options), six R.550 Magic air-to-air missiles and two kinds of decals.
- The number of parts is about 200, it becomes the total width 167 mm and the total length 272 mm at completion.
