Photo Comment

The array of Mirages at Savigny-lès-Beaune includes this machine, labelled as the Mirage IIIO01 (three Oscar zero one), which was flown with a Rolls-Royce Avon engine. Australia eventually opted for the standard Atar engine in its Mirage IIIOs. It looks as if this aircraft was later used for aerial refueling trials.
