Yep. Mirage ACF was the plan from May 1972 to December 1975. Mirage 2000 started as a palliative to it (albeit a cheap and good one, so no complain: France could not afford a twin jet, be it G4, G8, ACF or 4000). Not until shrunk to F-18 size and as a replacement of everything but the kitchen sink in AdA and Aéronavale.
