  1. It is an internal naming convention for Dassault.

    In the early '70s Dassault experimented on light weight interceptor based on the Mirage III and it was known at first as the "Super Mirage III", then the "Delta 1000", "Delta 2000", and finally "Super Mirage 2000".

    The "super" was dropped eventually. Not all that bad, because at one time it was called "Mimi" short for Mini Mirage.
