Thomson-CSF Now Known As Thales

International defense and commercial electronics group Thomson-CSF is rebranding its global operations with a new name - Thales.

A global business, with operations in nearly 30 countries, Thales' strategy falls in the realm of leveraging its expertise in dual technologies - where military applications can take advantage of advances made in response to the civil market and vice-versa. Thales already serves the defense community as a prime contractor in a variety of geographical markets.
