Inside the Factory: Installing Air Data Systems and Pitot Tubes on the Mirage 2000 Fighter

How does a supersonic jet measure its speed and angle in the sky? Witness the precision installation of Pitot tubes and Angle of Attack (AoA) sensors on the iconic Mirage 2000. The Air Data System (ADS) is the "sensory organs" of any fighter jet. In this episode of Inside the Factory, we explore the delicate process of integrating these critical sensors onto the Mirage 2000 airframe: • Pitot Tube Precision: Mounting the heated probes that measure total and static pressure to calculate airspeed and altitude. • AoA Sensor Alignment: Calibrating the vanes that detect the wing's angle relative to the oncoming air, preventing dangerous stalls. • Heating & De-icing: A look at the electrical systems that keep these sensors clear of ice at high altitudes. • Digital Integration: How raw air pressure data is converted into digital signals for the pilot’s Head-Up Display (HUD).
