Airbus Reservists to Join Bastille Day Military Parade for First Time
On July 14, 2026, approximately 100 reservists from Airbus and its joint ventures will participate in the Bastille Day parade, highlighting the company's strong ties with the French military. This marks a significant moment as it is the first involvement of a private company in this national event.

For the first time, Airbus reservists will participate in the Bastille Day military parade on July 14, 2026, along with personnel from joint ventures MBDA and ArianeGroup. This event underscores Airbus's commitment to national defense and its collaboration with the French Armed Forces.
Airbus, a key supplier to the French military, provides transport aircraft like the A400M, helicopters, military satellites, drones, and cybersecurity systems. ArianeGroup, which reported €2.6 billion in revenues in 2025, develops the M51 ballistic missiles and operates the Ariane 6 and Vega-C launchers. This participation illustrates the shared responsibility for defense, involving industry and military.
