DASSAULT AVIATION BRINGS FALCON 6X TO SINGAPORE AIRSHOW 2026

Dassault Aviation showcases the Falcon 6X at Singapore Airshow 2026 while the ultra long-range Falcon 10X continues progressing through key development milestones toward flight testing.

Singapore, 4 February 2026 — Dassault Aviation will present its Falcon 6X at the Singapore Airshow 2026, highlighting the aircraft’s expanding global fleet following its entry into service in late 2023.

 

The twinjet, offering the largest cabin cross-section of any purpose-built business jet prior to the Falcon 10X entering service, will be displayed statically throughout the week at the Changi Exhibition Centre.

The Falcon 6X combines a spacious interior, advanced flight control systems and Pratt & Whitney Canada PW812D engines. The aircraft has gained early positive feedback from operators, particularly in areas of cabin comfort, quietness and short-field capability — established characteristics of the Falcon family.

 

Dassault positions the aircraft as well suited to long-range travel requirements across the Asia-Pacific region, where demand for modern, efficient business aircraft continues to develop.

 

Falcon 10X Development Progresses

Dassault’s ultra long-range Falcon 10X programme continues to advance through key development milestones, moving toward rollout and the start of its flight-test campaign.

 

The aircraft is designed to offer the widest cabin in its class and will incorporate flight-control technologies derived from Dassault combat aircraft. With a planned range of 7,500 nautical miles, the Falcon 10X is engineered to support nonstop intercontinental operations, a capability increasingly sought by business aviation operators across Asia-Pacific.

 

Asia-Pacific Market Outlook

Business aviation activity across Asia-Pacific continues to show positive momentum, supported by economic growth, fleet modernisation and increasing demand for aircraft offering extended range and enhanced cabin capability.

 

Approximately 100 Falcon jets are currently operating in the region, with expectations for continued fleet growth as operators focus on range, efficiency and passenger comfort.

 

Aftermarket Support Expansion in Malaysia

Dassault continues to expand its regional customer support infrastructure through the ExecuJet MRO Services network.

In 2024, ExecuJet Malaysia opened a new maintenance, repair and overhaul facility at Subang Airport. The facility is designed to support the latest-generation Falcon aircraft, including the Falcon 6X and future Falcon 10X. The development complements existing ExecuJet service centres in Australia and strengthens Dassault’s regional support capability.

 

The expansion forms part of Dassault’s broader global aftermarket network growth, which also includes the addition of a new service facility in Melbourne, Florida, supporting long-term operational requirements of Falcon operators worldwide.

 

“The Singapore Airshow is a key opportunity for us to engage with customers across one of the world’s most promising aviation markets. The top of the Falcon line continues to set new standards for cabin comfort and flight performance. Through our expanded MRO presence in Malaysia we are furthering our commitment to supporting the long-term growth of business aviation in the region,” said Eric Trappier, Chairman and CEO of Dassault Aviation.
