PRESS RELEASE

COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE
COMMUNICATION DEPARTMENT

Indonesia purchases the Rafale

(Saint-Cloud, France, February 10, 2022) – In the presence of the French Minister of the
Armed Forces, Florence Parly, and the Indonesian Minister of Defence, Prabowo Subianto,
the Chairman and CEO of Dassault Aviation, Eric Trappier, and the Air Vice Marshal Yusuf
Jauhari, Head of Defence Facilities Agency of the Indonesian Ministry of Defence, signed the
contract for the acquisition by Indonesia of 42 latest-generation Rafale aircraft, at a ceremony
held today in Jakarta.

The Rafale acquisition for the Tentara Nasional Indonesia Angkatan Udara (Indonesian
National Army Air Force) includes a complete turnkey solution, with a comprehensive package
that covers aircrew training, logistical support for several Indonesian air bases, and a training
center with two full-mission simulators.

The Rafale's unique "omnirole" capability will provide Indonesia with a tool for sovereignty and
operational independence, reinforcing its role as a major regional power.

Indonesian industry will benefit from a substantial industrial return, not only in the aeronautical
sector, but also in all the other major areas of cooperation relating to the broad portfolio of dual
technologies mastered by Dassault Aviation and its industrial partners, Safran Aircraft Engines
and Thales.

"It is a great honor for Dassault Aviation to see the Rafale join the highly prestigious Tentara
Nasional Indonesia Angkatan Udara air force, and I would like to thank the Indonesian
authorities for the trust they have placed in us. This contract marks the start of a long-term
partnership that will see Dassault Aviation rapidly step up its presence in the country. It also
demonstrates the strong bond between Indonesia and France and reinforces the position of
the world's largest archipelago as a key power on the international stage. I am confident that
the Rafale will meet the operational needs of the Indonesian Air Force, actively contributing to
the defence and sovereignty of the Republic of Indonesia", said Eric Trappier on this occasion.
