Citat:Mirage III NG
In April 1981, after several months of design studies, Dassault launched the production of the prototype of an aircraft designed to replace the Mirage III, Mirage 5 and Mirage 50 : the Mirage III NG (New Generation), equipped with the Snecma Atar 9K50.
Working from the airframe of Mirage 50 01, the Corporation added an extra airfoil surface, the canard (duck) – to the fore, over the air intakes. Now renamed the Mirage 50 K, the aircraft flew on May 27, 1981 at Istres, with Patrick Experton at the controls.
Its purpose was to confirm the preliminary studies leading ultimately to the Mirage III NG. The flight tests confirmed the aerodynamic qualities; electronic controls could be fitted on the airframe of the Mirage III to turn it into a Mirage III NG. The new aircraft benefited from the wealth of studies carried out for the enhanced versions of the Mirage III, as well as from electronic controls that had already been tested out on the Mirage 2000 and the Mirage 4000. The Mirage III NG first flew on December 21, 1982, piloted by Patrick Experton.
This version was never exported.

Citat:After 1989, enhancements derived from the 3NG were incorporated into Brazilian Mirage IIIEs, as well as into four ex-Armée de l'Air Mirage IIIEs that were transferred to Brazil in 1988. In 1989, Dassault offered a similar upgrade refit of ex-AdA Mirage IIIEs under the designation Mirage IIIEX, featuring canards, a fixed in-flight refueling probe, a longer nose, new avionics, and other refinements.
