France has a strong domestic defense industry:

It competes with the US, the UK, Russia and China in the development of advanced military hardware. The highly competent sector consists of Thales, Safran, and Dassault Aviation; companies with an international market presence. The country’s defense exports recorded a review-period CAGR of 21.16% and will continue to grow thanks to deals signed with India and Australia for fighter aircraft and submarines. Although France is self-sufficient, it does import some advanced technology platforms such as sensors, engines and transport aircraft from the US.

Terrorist attacks and cybercrime have driven the government to increase its expenditure on homeland security.
France consolidating its position as a major defense exporter:
Exports of military equipment registered a CAGR of 21.16%, rising from US$1.0 billion in 2012 to US$2.2 billion in 2016. The majority of exports are for aircraft, ships, and missile defense systems. Demand will emanate from the Asia-Pacific region over the forecast period.
