We provide the project management and organizational expertise needed to ensure that all parties involved work together effectively in order to deliver complex programs that meet our customers’ evolving needs, on time and on budget.
We manage the entire life cycle of aircraft programs for our customers and partners. We add value through our ability to manage, coordinate and guarantee the ultimate efficacy of the systems delivered by the projects we lead, whether they be national or international in scope.
Guarantor of each system’s underlying fundamentals and its development, we are responsible for assessing the technological challenges involved, as well as the scope and sharing of tasks between partners.
Our comprehensive, dual civil‑military approach to product design is focused on mastering complexity and harnessing data.
AI is set to boost the operational effectiveness of aviation and will underpin collaborative military combat in the future.
Our strategy involves the incorporation of secure, sovereign and supervised AI into combat systems. To this end, we entered into a partnership with the French Ministry of Defense’s AI Agency (AMIAD), in June 2025, and with Thales, as part of the cortAIx AI accelerator initiative, in November 2025.
A partnership with Harmattan AI was also announced in January 2026. Its objective is to speed up the process of integrating supervised autonomy and AI into aviation systems.
The Rafale continues to surge ahead thanks to its built‑in ability to integrate technological advances and user feedback. The F4 standard, with its focus on connectivity and enhanced payloads, is currently being finalized. Preliminary development work on the F5 standard has commenced.
The F5 standard will be focused on collaborative combat. It will be capable of operating with a combat drone system. Drawing on the achievements of the nEUROn program and our ongoing work in the area of autonomous technologies, this highly versatile stealth system will be designed to keep pace with future threats.
Deployed as part of combat bubbles, our future weapons systems need to enable humans to maintain their position at the helm of the decision‑making process, while ensuring operational performance in the midst of high‑intensity operations and in situations involving contested network conditions. This will be achieved by means of collaborative combat, automated systems based partly on AI, as well as adaptive and resilient system architectures.
Following its rollout on March 10, 2026, in Mérignac, the Falcon 10X is continuing its development process with its maiden flight and test campaign.
The Falcon 2000LXS Albatros made its maiden flight in January 2025. On top of the 7 maritime surveillance and response aircraft (AVSIMAR) ordered in December 2020, the French defense procurement agency (DGA) exercised an option for 5 additional aircraft in September 2025.
The Falcon 8X Archange made its maiden flight in July 2025. This aircraft, 3 of which have been ordered by the French government, is intended for strategic intelligence purposes.
