In this photograph, the Australian-built Dassault Mirage III-O, A3-23, of the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF), gracefully touches down at Avalon Airport. The Mirage III-O is a variant of the French-designed Dassault Mirage III fighter aircraft, which was manufactured under license in Australia by the Commonwealth Aircraft Corporation (CAC) between 1961 and 1984. This specific aircraft, A3-23, was produced in 1968 and is a testament to the successful collaboration between the French and Australian aviation industries. The Mirage III-O was a versatile aircraft that served various roles in the RAAF, including as an interceptor, trainer, and reconnaissance platform. Its sleek design and advanced capabilities made it a formidable addition to the Australian military's arsenal. The aircraft's distinctive delta wing configuration and twin afterburning engines give it an impressive appearance on the runway. This photograph captures a moment in time as the Mirage III-O, A3-23, comes to a gentle halt at Avalon Airport. The image showcases the precision and skill of the RAAF pilot as he expertly maneuvers the aircraft for landing. The background of the photograph features the picturesque landscape of Avalon Airport, with its rolling hills and blue skies, adding to the serene and peaceful atmosphere of the scene. Overall, this photograph is a stunning representation of the power and grace of the Australian-built Dassault Mirage III-O in action.
