Dassault Aviation

Dassault Aviation, founded by Marcel Bloch in 1929, is unique in building both the Rafale fighter and the Falcon business jet family, sharing digital flight control and aerodynamic expertise between the two. Falcons are known for trijet designs, short-field agility and low fuel burn, and the current line spans the 2000LXS, 900LX, 6X, 7X and 8X. The company delivered 31 Falcons in 2024 and 37 in 2025, and its next flagship, the ultra-long-range Falcon 10X with the largest cabin in business aviation, first flew in June 2026 ahead of a planned 2027 entry into service.
