Dassault launched the FNX at the 2001 Paris Air Show, aiming for a 10,500km (5,700nm) range at Mach 0.88, up from the Falcon 900EX's 8,300 km at Mach 0.84. Its new high-speed wing is 1.86 m (6 ft 1 in) longer with 5° higher wing sweep than the 900 wing; while its fuselage is 20% longer, it keeps the same cabin cross-section but with a new curved windscreen.
Dassault produce the midsize Falcon 2000S/LXS twinjet, the long-range Falcon 900LX trijet and ultra-long range Dassault Falcon 7X/8X trijets. The first Falcon 20 took off on its first flight on 4 May 1963, [1] and was handed over to a customer in 1965. [2] The Falcon 900 was rolled out in 1984, and the Falcon 7X made its first flight in 2005. [1]
It is 33.4 m (110 ft) long and has a 33.6 m (110 ft)-wide, high aspect ratio carbonfibre wing, a first for a Dassault business jet.

The Dassault Falcon 6X is a large, long-range business jet developed by Dassault Aviation in France. Its precursor, the Falcon 5X twinjet, was launched in 2013, rolled-out in 2015 and made its first flight on July 5, 2017, but its development was frozen as its Safran Silvercrest engine failed to meet performance objectives.
