Aero Masks sheet AM72-F101 provides a set of masking stencils for Mirage F-1s in the French 3 color scheme useful for aircraft operated by ATAC.
The masks come on a single A5 sheet and total 23 individual pieces. The instructions are not too complex (although some of the colors overlap or are painted over other colors) and are in steps, with eight being needed to paint the three main colors for this scheme (FS34079, FS36173 and FS36375/FS17178).
Whilst this approach is best suited to schemes with "hard" edges, it can still be used effectively for "soft" edged schemes, especially in 1/72. These sheets are therefore highly recommended (and work well as I can confirm, having used several in the past).
