This is found on the boards where the film is located:

"no, these aircrafts are french mirage F1 cr from reims air base (where I study) in a detatchment in chad.

they have come to the request of the chadian government to fight islamist rebels from lybia. you can find plenty of awsome "mirage in chad" video on you tube. "

This matches with the data on the F-1. Also note on the film that the air induction is oval. The Tornado's induction is a rectangle. The French also sold these aircraft to several countries in Africa.
