No the slides do not indicate this.  For all we know the project that
the slides are talking about has to target hardware for which there is
only a C compiler.  It could be that Airbus only uses such tools on
such hardware.

Using presentation slides as such an indicator is usually a bad idea.
Presentation slides are made for a specific context, and time frame.
They often lack full and complete information.  The slides don't
explicitly support your claim.
