    As an Aussie, I have real soft spot for particularly the Mirage III, and the whole Mirage family. Our Mirages did consistently well in exercises against the USAF , USN & USMC aircraft, so it isn't surprising that underestimating one with a good pilot could get you killed. The 30mm DEFA cannon in particular, is a bit like an elephant's foot - once it steps on you, you are officially screwed! There is merit to the idea that you don't count your aerial victories until your opponent hits the ground! ;-)

      It's one of those topics that always have to come back when someone speak about holes in cheese. And if you ever ate a Fondue, you'd know the cheeses in it are different than the gruyère. It's kind of a big deal in the Alpine culture tbh. And it's delicious too, which doesn't hurt either.
      But about the original comment, I agree that GS did hit the mirage quite a few times, and with anything other than a 20mm on a sturdy plane, it would have been a kill. But the mirage is quite a sturdy plane, and the 20mm are not the most powerful ammo in the range. It is the difference between "throw enough [shells] at the enemy, and some of it could eventually disable the plane or the pilot, and the bigger more powerful calibres, like 23 or 30mm, where the rate of fire is lower, so the hit chances are a bit fewer too, but any hit will be crippling and have a real impact.
      Different philosophy for doing war : quantity vs "quality" (but I'd rather say Impact in this case)
      The damage model may be broken, or not, I don't know, but the Mirage should not have lasted so long IMO. Especially considering that it is a single motor jet and smoking very dark.
      But there have been numerous occasion where planes came back full of holes and still able to carry their mission, especially bombers in WW2. So a hit is not always a guaranty of neutralisation, and sometimes, the bullet just rips on highly angled plate, or just goes through.
      So, the Swiss cheese plane have more chance to continue flying than the one hit by one or two 30mm shells ;)

    You can't knock the endurance of the Mirage in DCS.
    I once was flying in a sever with a friend (he was in an F14) while I was flying the Mirage, we went after a group of bandits and at some point during the fight, I took a missile and basically my plane was shredded and my radar was destroyed, but somehow the plane was incredibly flyable and because of the Beauty of the Magic 2s ability to lock on through their IR seeker heads I was able to shoot down the remaining plane with with my Magic 2 despite not even having radar.
    It is a wonderful plane, though don't expect to always survive everything, in my experience unless they kill the pilot or somehow rip a wing/rudder off, don't ever count it out of the fight. More often than not I am dying cause I got pilot sniped with a missile in the face.

    While the F-5 does have twin 20mm, they still only fire at 1/6th the speed of the m61. So not a lot of lead in that 1 second burst. Mirage has same RoF but uses twin 30mm. Both have slow fire rate, but mirage is throwing much larger lead at the little Tiger.

    Mirage's DM is just "broken". You can hit it with multiple hits from a couple of bursts from the Vulcan cannon, and it will still be flying. Happened countless times...
