This new reworked compensating International series has been a thing for a year or... two now I think, but there has been NO information on it WHATSOEVER, not even from Besson themselves afaik. If you click on the filter option on the eupho page on the Besson site it still shows the International, but when you click on it there's nothing there.
The International series of tubas are on the Besson website. I did not check the Euphonium links. I have a friend that has owned an Eb Tuba and he speaks favorably of it. It is not of the same quality as a 981/982 but felt it was on par with Wessex Ebs. (his opinion). Probably worth checking out.
