According to the report, French defense giants Dassault Aviation and Thales are joining forces to bring controlled and supervised AI into military aeronautics, aiming to make aircraft smarter and more effective in the skies. The partnership, signed by Dassault CEO Eric Trappier and Thales CEO Patrice Caine, was presented at the Adopt AI Summit in Paris.
The report stated that working with Thales’ tech arm, cortAIx, the duo plans to develop AI that can help pilots and drones spot threats, make sense of complex situations, plan missions, and run operations with greater speed, precision, and coordination.
According to the report from the summit, the companies conducted a hands-on demo of their AI systems, giving officials, researchers, and industry representatives a first look at their strategy for secure AI in defense operations.
The report added that Pascale Lohat, Dassault’s chief technical officer, said the project reflects a shared mission: building trusted and sovereign AI for the French Armed Forces. He also said that this partnership is reflected in research and innovation programs dedicated to the collaborative air combat of the future, with a view to incorporating AI into aeronautical defense systems.
The report stated that cortAIx will bring to this strategic partnership with Dassault Aviation the best of Thales’ technological heritage, enriched by decades of military experience, combined with the agility and dynamics of a powerful innovation accelerator, as explained by Mickael Brossard, vice president of cortAIx.
In addition, this project operates in France, the UK, Canada, and Singapore — and soon the UAE. The project will eventually tap into a global network of partners, with strict adherence to domestic and international AI rules, including the EU AI Act.
