Visual differences between Mirage 2000-5F and Mirage 2000C?

[Guest]

(I've posted this question in more than one forum, so apologies if you've already seen this elsewhere...)

I've recently gotten this decal set from Syhart to do a rather attractive Mirage 2000-5F. But no one seems to directly kit this version of the 2000. I did some research, and the best I could come up with is that the 5F is the latest development of the C version. But before I just go getting a 2000C and slapping the stickers on, I'd like to know if there are any visible (external) differences in the two variants? I'll be working in 1/72 scale, so any pointers to a good choice for a kit would be helpful, too.

Many thanks in advance,

-Randy

I’m not exactly a Mirage expert, but a quick bit of reading suggests there are detail differences between the 2000C and 2000-5F. One is that the -5 doesn’t seem to have a pitot tube on the nose, but there are probably other things you can see on a model too.
