French Air Force Mirage 2000N 369 with code 125-AG operated by EC 2/4 "La Fayette" from Istres, is seen returning from a TLP mission at Albacete. Dassault developed the Mirage 2000N for nuclear strike. Since the Mirage 2000N's standard weapon was the ASMP, which was carried on the centerline pylon, this meant that it could not carry a centerline tank, but a distinctive big 2,000 litre (530 US gallon) underwing drop tank with a bulbous nose was developed and the aircraft is seen here carrying two of these in this picture.
