Peru vs. Ecuador; Alto-Cenepa War, 1995 The available Matra R.550 Magic Mk.Is proved to be of dubious quality already during earlier wars, not only in 1981 but foremost in the Middle East, and lacked the range, manoeuvrability, as well as all-aspect engagement capability. For such reasons, the FAP never acquired Matra Super 530D medium-range air-to-air missiles for its Mirage 2000Ps: instead, these were armed only with Matra R.550 Magic Mk.Is. It was not before 1998 — well after the Condor War — that Peru acquired a small batch of Mk.IIs. Nevertheless, the FAE lost a T-33A that crashed near Mancas in a non-combat related accident during the war: the crew, Capt. Garzón and Diaz, ejected at a very low level and was killed. www.acig.org /artman/publish/article_164.shtml   (13160 words)
