    HASSAN MEDDAH DÉFENSE , HAUTS-DE-FRANCE , HAUTS-DE-SEINE , BOUCHES-DU-RHÔNE , GIRONDE PUBLIÉ LE 19/11/2020 À 06H00, MIS À JOUR LE 19/11/2020 À 11H27 La Marine nationale va recevoir 12 appareils Albatros pour lutter contre le trafic et la pêche illégale et détecter les pollutions. La commande passée auprès des acteurs de l'aéronautique s'élève à 1,3 milliard d'euros. Une commande de 12 avions pour un montant de 1,3 milliard d'euros... Par les temps qui courent, c'est toujours bon à prendre pour les acteurs de l'aéronautique qui subissent une crise sans précédent. A l'occasion de son déplacement à l'usine de Dassault Aviation à Seclin (Nord), la ministre des armées, Florence Parly, doit annoncer ce 19 novembre une commande de 12 appareils, des Falcon 2000, au profit de la Marine nationale pour ses missions de surveillance maritime. L'usine de Seclin, spécialisée dans la production des pièces primaires des Rafale et des jets d'affaires de Dassault Aviation, fabriquera les premières pièces de structure des Falcon 2000, aussi rebaptisés Albatros dans le cadre du programme AVSIMAR (avion de surveillance et d'intervention maritime). Des capteurs électroniques de dernière génération Depuis leurs bases navales en Outre-mer et à Lann-Bihoué près de Lorient (Morbihan), les Albatros auront pour mission de lutter contre les trafics de stupéfiants, la piraterie, la pêche illégale et de détecter les pollutions. Les avions de surveillance maritime de la Marine nationale ont détecté 54 pollutions en 2018 et 110 en 2019. Selon les chiffres avancés par le ministère des Armées, entre 10 et 25% de la pêche mondiale est réalisée de manière illégale. La commande pour les 12 appareils s'élève à environ 1,3 milliard d'euros. Elle comprend leurs équipements électroniques ainsi qu'un contrat de 10 ans de maintenance. La commande bénéficiera au maître d'œuvre industriel Dassault Aviation ainsi qu'à l'ensemble de ses partenaires. Naval Group fournit le système d'information de la mission, Thales le radar de surveillance maritime, Safran la boule optronique. Une partie des appareils fabriqués en Inde "Le Falcon 2000 Albatros est un avion à hautes performances doté d'un système de mission et de capteurs de dernière génération. (...) Plusieurs pays s'intéressent à ces avions qui constituent une réponse performante aux enjeux considérables de la protection et de la sécurité maritime du territoire et de l'action de l'Etat en mer", a précisé Eric Trappier, PDG de Dassault Aviation dans un communiqué de presse. Les coast-guards américains et les garde-côtes japonais s'appuient déjà sur des appareils de l'avionneur français pour assurer leurs missions de surveillance maritime. Le contrat signé avec le ministère des Armées devait générer une centaine d'emplois pendant la phase de développement qui concernera essentiellement les sites de l'avionneur à Saint-Cloud (Hauts-de-Seine), Mérignac (Gironde) et Istres (Bouches-du-Rhône). Une cinquantaine d'emplois supplémentaires seront mobilisés pendant la phase de fabrication et de soutien. Les trois premiers exemplaires sont produits et assemblés en France et les appareils suivants en Inde par l'avionneur et son partenaire local Reliance. Cela répond aux contreparties industrielles négociées à l'occasion de la vente de 36 Rafale en 2016 entre Paris et New-Delhi. Les premiers appareils livrés en 2025 Les nouveaux Albatros remplaceront la flotte vieillissante actuelle composés de Falcon 50 et Falcon 200 militarisés qui arrivent en bout de course avec déjà une quarantaine d'années de vol au compteur. Sur les 12 appareils, 7 seront en permanence en mission et les 5 autres serviront à la formation et l'entraînement des équipages ou seront indisponibles car en maintenance. Ils auront des performances accrues de l'ordre de 10% avec notamment 8 heures d'autonomie et une élongation de 2700 nautiques (soit environ 5000 km). Ils seront également équipés de meilleurs équipements électroniques (anti-brouilleurs GPS, communications militaires sécurisées, communications satellitaires, récepteur d'identification automatique AIS ...). Les livraisons des 12 appareils s'étendront jusqu'à 2030 avec les trois premiers exemplaires livrés en 2025. https://www.usinenouvelle.com/article/les-industriels-de-l-aero-qui-vont-beneficier-de-la-commande-d-appareils-de-surveillance-maritime-sont.N1030214
