Super -Tiger vs Mirage F-1
The Super Tiger first flight was in 1958 while the Mirage in 1966 and it took 7 years until it was interduced to service in 1973.
At that time 8 years difference was very big gap. While the engine of both is about 7.2 ton thrust the aerodynamic design of the mirage gave him a clear advantage in performance and more modern weapon systems ! While the Super Tiger speed is mach 2.04 the F1 is mach 2.25 and the climb also better at 40 k f per min vs 30.
So the more modern plane won here !!!
