Dassault Aviation

Dassault Aviation is a cornerstone of European defense sovereignty, producing the Rafale omnirole combat aircraft that serves as France's primary fighter jet and is increasingly adopted by allied nations seeking alternatives to American platforms. The company's vertically integrated design philosophy, spanning airframe, avionics, and systems integration, preserves critical aerospace engineering capabilities within Europe. Dassault also plays a central role in the Future Combat Air System (FCAS/SCAF) program alongside Airbus, shaping the next generation of European air dominance.
