On 11 September 2013 in Bordeaux-Mérignac, Dassault Aviation delivered a Falcon 50M to the French defense procurement agency (DGA) to ensure maritime surveillance tasks.

This aircraft is the first in a series of four State-owned Falcon 50B (initially operated by Etec, the French Air Force squadron that ensured presidential and other official flights) to be transformed for maritime surveillance missions. It will join four other Falcon 50M jets in service in the French Navy since the early 2000s.
