This is one of the Osprey Colour Series. In this world there are interesting jobs. Being chief test pilot at French aerospace company Dassault for 18 years testing aircrafts that have never been flown and pushing them to the limit surely falls under the latter. Duchateau divides his working hours between flying up to three times weekly running tests on a rig or in the sim and in briefings debriefings and meetings. Besides helming a project right from its initial phases flying other aircrafts in the fleet on demonstration tours Duchateau is also required in the recruiting and managing of his team. The chief test pilot is as much involved in the entire process from development phase to ground simulations and real flight tests. Salvador Mafé Huertas has published thousands of articles in Spanish and foreign magazines on Defense topics. He was Director of the magazines FUERZA AÉREA 1998-2012 FUERZA NAVAL 2002-2012 and FUERZA TERRESTRRE 2004-2012. He has to his credit more than eighteen books published in Spain Germany and the USA. France and the United Kingdom. Due to his profession he has flown on numerous occasions with the Air Force the Aircraft Flotilla and the FAMET as well as with the Russian Air Force the US Navy and the Marines. He holds the Medal for Aeronautical Merit and the Medal for Naval Merit. The Dassault Mirage III is a family of single/dual-seat single-engine fighter aircraft developed and manufactured by French aircraft company Dassault Aviation. It was the first Western European combat aircraft to exceed Mach 2 in horizontal flight a feat which was achieved on 24 October 1958. In 1952 the French government issued its specification calling for a lightweight all-weather interceptor. Amongst the respondents were Dassault with their design initially known as the Mirage I. Following favorable flight testing held over the course of 1954 in which speeds of up to Mach 1.6 were attained it was decided that a larger follow-on aircraft would be required to bear the necessary equipment and payloads. An enlarged Mirage II proposal was considered as well as MD 610 Cavalier 3 versions but was discarded in favor of a further-developed design powered by the newly developed Snecma Atar afterburning turbojet engine designated as the Mirage III. In October 1960 the first major production model designated as the Mirage IIIC performed its maiden flight. Initial operational deliveries of this model commenced in July 1961; a total of 95 Mirage IIICs were obtained by the French Air Force Armée de l'Air AdA. The Mirage IIIC was rapidly followed by numerous other variants. The Mirage III was produced in large numbers for both the French Air Force and a wide number of export customers. Prominent overseas operators of the fighter included Argentina Australia South Africa Pakistan and Israel as well as a number of non-aligned nations. Often considered to be a second-generation fighter aircraft the Mirage III experienced a lengthy service life with several of these operators; for some time the type remained a fairly maneuverable aircraft and an effective opponent when engaged in close-range dogfighting. During its service with the French Air Force the Mirage III was normally armed with assorted air-to-ground ordnance or R.550 Magic air-to-air missiles. Its design proved to be relatively versatile allowing the fighter model to have been readily adapted to serve in a variety of roles including trainer reconnaissance and ground-attack versions along with several more extensive derivatives of the aircraft including the Dassault Mirage 5 Dassault Mirage IIIV and Atlas Cheetah. Some operators have undertaken extensive modification and upgrade programs of their flights such as Project ROSE of the Pakistan Air Force. The Mirage III has been used in active combat roles in multiple conflicts by a number of operators. The Israeli Air Force was perhaps the most prolific operator of the fighter outside of France itself; Israel deployed their Mirage IIIs in both the Six-Day War where it was used as both an air superiority and strike aircraft and the Yom Kippur War during which it was used exclusively in air-to-air combat in conjunction with the IAI Nesher an Israeli-built derivative of the Mirage 5. Ace of aces Giora Epstein achieved all of his kills flying either the Mirage III or the Nesher. During the South African Border War the Mirage III formed the bulk of the South African Air Force's fleet comprising a cluster of Mirage IIICZ interceptors Mirage IIIEZ fighter-bombers and Mirage IIIRZ reconnaissance fighters; following the introduction of the newer Mirage F1 the type was dedicated to secondary roles in the conflict such as daytime interception base security reconnaissance and training. The Argentine Air Force used the Mirage IIIEA during the Falklands War but their lack of an aerial refueling capability limited the aircraft's usefulness in the conflict. Even using drop tanks the Mirages only had an endurance of five minutes within the combat area around the British fleet. Osprey Publishing paperback
