A3-100 in bare metal finish.
New Mirage Prints
Dassault's Mirage is one of the most beautiful aircraft ever operated by any airforce, let alone the RAAF. It's been on the Grubby Fingers Wanted List from day one and it has finally arrived. The first subjects are, in fact, just one subject. The first four releases trace the operational career of one particular airframe from day one to retirement.
A3-15 has been drawn in four of the colour schemes it wore over its service life in the RAAF. Each scheme represents a separate era in the life of the jet. Above you can see the early bare metal scheme.
A3-15 in Camo
A3-15 in a RAAF Jubilee celebration scheme from 1981
She was dressed in fatigues for a few years before being paraded around in a red, white and blue scheme for the RAAF Diamond Jubilee displays. 
From the Jubilee scheme until retirement, A3-15 wore a contemporary Air Defence grey scheme.
After she left RAAF service, A3-15 went on to serve with the Pakistani Air Force. I am waiting for photos from Pakistan at the moment and, when they get here, I will offer that scheme too.

All new galleries will look ike this from now on We've worked out a new way to present the walkaround galleries. I'm sure you'll agree it is an improvement on the old style. It is much easier on the eye and easier and faster to use.

November went missing.
Regular readers and subscribers might be wondering what happened to the November issue of The Grubby Truth. Well, I'm not telling.
