French term or phrase: Rafale
La France, 1er pays exportateur de vins au monde en valeur
Valeur des échanges commerciaux de vins dans le monde :
26Mrd d’euros (OIV)
Les Vins & Spiritueux apportent à la France l’équivalent de 126 Rafales par an

This must clearly mean something very specific but I can't seem to find it.

Thank you very much for your help.

Explanation:
Rafale is a French twin-engine, canard delta wing, multirole fighter aircraft designed and built by Dassault Aviation.
The military industry is a part of the french economy so it's normal to use it to compare the incomes of each economic sector ;)
