Dassault Falcon – The 10X Experience

“Meet the Mighty Falcon 10X”…

With a range of 7,500 NM (13,890 KM), the Dassault Falcon 10X can fly non-stop from New York to Shanghai or Los Angeles to Sydney. The two Rolls-Royce Pearl 10X engines produce 18,000 pounds of thrust each, required to reach the published top speed of 0.925 Mach, very close to the speed of sound.

Only two engines when the usual Falcon long-range cabins such as the 7X and 8X have three? True – but when you’re as powerful as these two and may not need the ultra-long range of the 7X or 8X, it’s cheaper to maintain.

Mind you, when you’re paying around US$75m for a new 10X, you may not be two worried about a 3rd engine maintenance cost.

Dassault claim the 10X is the “safest, most advanced widebody in the sky”. Needless to say, Gulfstream, Bombardier and Embraer may have an alternative view on that statement. Boeing Business Jets and Airbus Corporate Jets might also raise an eyebrow – or two.

Meanwhile, Dassault Aviation continue to dazzle (and differentiate) with their ”models-based” marketing style. Originally revealed in May 2021, the official post-certification unveiling of the 10X took place on 10 March 2026 – the attached video clip was first shown at the Dassault HQ in Mérignac, near Bordeaux at the launch party. Perhaps even Grant Cardone, once an Owner of a Falcon 900 with his brand “10X” painted on the side in very large red and black colours, and even with the Registration Mark N10X, might not be able to resist.
