    La commande militaire, planche de salut de la filière aéronautique

    Sur Europe 1, le chroniqueur économique Axel de Tarlé estime que la récente commande de munitions à Thales par l'armée australienne est une bonne nouvelle pour l'ensemble de la filière aéronautique qui travaille de fait à la fois pour le civil et le militaire, comme le montre l'exemple des Rafale de Dassault Aviation et de l'Eurofighter d'Airbus. « Ces commandes militaires vont permettre à la filière de garder nos compétences, nos ingénieurs, et donc, l'excellence de cette filière », conclut Axel de Tarlé en rappelant que l'aéronautique représente le plus gros poste excédentaire du commerce extérieur français en 2019.
