To illustrate this evolution, the speakers drew a parallel with the X-37B and CSSHQ vehicles. Dassault Aviation thus emphasized, in its own terms, "the strategic importance of space aircraft for sovereignty and security".
This statement comes nearly a month after France's decision, announced by President of the Republic Emmanuel Macron and welcomed by the group in a press release issued on September 10, 2026, to support the Vortex reusable orbital space aircraft project.
