Dassault Debuts New Flagship Jet, $58M Falcon 8X

Dassault took its new flagship jet, the Falcon 8X, for a test flight earlier this month.

The Falcon 8X is 80 feet long with a 42-foot-long cabin. That is large enough to accommodate 30 different cabin designs with options including lounges, full bathrooms, and crew-rest areas.

The Falcon 8X is a three-engine jet. It also sports a new wing design that helps achieve 35 percent more fuel efficiency than similar jets.

The cockpit also got a redesign and is now sporting the latest version of 3-D color weather-radar system with turbulence-detection technology.

The Dassault Falcon 8X jets will sell for $58 million.
