Ok, ... as a German   :o  :D   I want to try a deeper look over the fence to my neighbour's projects (:ph34r:  not only a Chinese spy !!! :ph34r: ) !    

Yes, I know that there have been some very fine projects what sadly only became “what-if’s” like the Mirage G8
...
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last forever; I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one:
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods:
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

Is one of the last ones the Mirage 6000, that somebody speak about (from a recent Air Enthusiast that I have not seen) ?
[the word "realistic" hurts my heart...]

The dassault book is truly in depth on every dassault program, a superb read (even with my "schoolboy French") and if you are in London there are copies of parts 1 (company history) and part 2 (program history) in the Science Museum Library.
