Try Simviation, FSX Military, Page 6. for FS2004/FSX Dassalt Mirage G8 Package Version 3,

Zip file:   Mirage_V8_G3.zip

Hit "L" for lights to get the after burner to glow.   

The wings oscillate from fast position to slow.

Have fun!    DB

The afterburners should work eather with full throttle (for example: IRIS Tornado, F14 Tomcat, av. here on SimV) or by Ctrl. + F4 (some older Concorde models). But sometimes they are indicated with the lights like described on top...

I would recoment the former payware IRIS Tornado available on SimV. It worked fine for me from the beginning (with afterburners linked to full throttle).

And with the Blue Angels F-14: maybe someone who uses this file too may help you?!

its part of the effects and there should be an effects file with the plane you download that needs to be placed into the effects folder within FS.

I have noticed sometimes it links itself to the lights switch which it should not , and simply re-selecting the aircraft usually will reset the effect so as it just appears at full throttle and goes away when you back the throttle down a little (like less than say 80-100%)

looking at your question again, are you asing more for an explantion of what they are in real life ?   In effect they boost your power by a bunch but it cost alot of fuel , is really only used sparodically in combat , most Mil jets will have a "full military power" throttle setting which is with the afterburners off.

In real life , most Mil jets will operate at 500-650 knots without the after burner , though we are now seeing the F-22 which was designed to have a "super-cruise" capability to operate faster than this for longer distances than was traditionally the case.
