Mirage IV book

Oct 14, 2004 4 Replies

I'm looking for some book on Mirage IV bomber. A lot of publications on Mirages in general mention the IV just in passing, jumping from the III straight to the 5. But I'd like to get a nice set of drawings. Does anyone know such a book? A magazine article will do too. I even agree to French text on that if English ones are out of print now.


I just saw a really good article in one of the current British mags about the IV. Air International? Curt

I don't know of a book on the Mirage IV. I don't think its all that surprising that most books on Mirages skip from the III to the V since the V was basically a modification of the III airframe. In contrast, while the IV, has a similar outline it is an entirely different aircraft. It's not a fighter at all but a strategic bomber/nuc strike aircraft (and in later life a strategic reconnaissance platform) and is a much bigger aircraft,
