He said that over the past eight years Thales, which has total staff of 80,000 of which 40,000 in France, had recruited 5,000 to 8,000 people per year and that last year already it had hired 11,500 new staff. Caine said that all the firm's activities - defence and security, aeronautics and space, identity and digital security, were growing strongly.
"The company is a reflection of its markets, which are all seeing dynamic growth, with needs growing in all our fields of activity," he said. Caine, who recently met with Ukraine's defence minister, said that France would deliver its Ground Master 200 radar air defence system to Ukraine in May.
