Covering a period of 10 years, the BALZAC contract includes all maintenance activities for the French Mirage2000s until their retirement.

Key Points: 
  • Covering a period of 10 years, the BALZAC contract includes all maintenance activities for the French Mirage2000s until their retirement.
  • Engine maintenance and the services provided by the SIA (Service Industriel de l'Aronautique) are the subject of separate contracts.
  • This contract is in line with the DMAs strategy of verticalizing aeronautical maintenance, as called for by the French Minister of the Armed Forces, by assigning responsibilities for support to a single prime contractor, declared Eric Trappier, Chairman and CEO of Dassault Aviation.
  • We are very honored by this new expression of trust by the French Ministry of the Armed Forces.
