Sabena technics pourrait perdre la maintenance des Falcon de la Marine nationale
Alain Anziani, maire de Mérignac et président de Bordeaux Métropole, alerte sur la situation de Sabena technics, qui pourrait être écartée de l'appel d'offres, récemment relancé par le ministère des Armées, pour la maintenance des Falcon 200 Gardian et des Falcon 50 de la Marine. Le ministère des Armées pourrait en effet attribuer cet appel d'offres dans les prochains jours à une société suisse à capitaux américains, cette dernière ayant émis une offre d'un tiers moins chère que celle émise par Sabena technics. Une telle décision serait, selon l'élu, en contradiction profonde avec l'esprit du plan de relance aéronautique présenté par le gouvernement en juin dernier. Alain Anziani alerte sur le risque de dégradation de la qualité des opérations de maintenance, qui se ferait aux dépens de l'activité et de la sécurité militaires. Il appelle la ministre des Armées et le ministre de l'Économie à « prendre en compte la survie d'un acteur industriel au savoir-faire confirmé ».
