Falcon business jets will be manufactured outside France for the first time ever under a partnership between Dassault Aviation and Indian company Reliance Aerostructure, announced on Wednesday at the Paris Air Show. Under the deal, the joint venture company—Dassault Reliance Aerospace Ltd. (DRAL)—will assemble Falcon 2000LXS twinjets at a facility known as the Multi-modal International Cargo Hub and Airport at Nagpur (MIHAN) in the western state of Maharashtra, India.

Falcon 2000 fuselage and wing assembly will be transferred to the Northern India plant, and plans call for the first “Made in India” business jet to roll off the line by 2028. According to Dassault, the partnership “represents a significant step in advancing India’s aerospace manufacturing capabilities, while strategically integrating into the global aviation supply chain.”
