A very impressive & finely made masterpiece of a amphibious flying boat

What-if the 2 Mirages below were the missing links between Mirage 5 and Mirage F1?

Dassault/Mitsubishi-F1



As suggested by zenrat.

In this case, whiffery affects only to weapons: RW Mirage F1 never carried those missiles.

After looking at cross-section drawings of the F1, it does appear that if one were building new airframes, the provisions could be made for two conformal/recessed AIM-7 mounting points a'la F-4 Phantom. Cannon pack kind of gets in the way and maaaybe the alternators on the 9K50.

Oh, would love to see a profile of this "conformal/recessed Aim-7 mount" ysi_maniac
