Gulfstream on Tuesday announced a new aircraft type, the G300, a super-midsize business jet that will replace the G280.

Gulfstream president Mark Burns revealed a full-scale mock-up of the G300 and pictures of the first aircraft in production at a customer event in Savannah, Georgia.

The G300, which uses high-thrust Honeywell engines, will have a range of 3,600 nm at Mach 0.80 or 3,000 nm at Mach 0.84. It has a maximum cruise altitude of 45,000 feet.

The aircraft’s cabin is configured with two living areas and can accommodate up to 10 passengers. The interior also features a plasma ionization air purification system and 10 panoramic oval windows.

“Fueled by a decade of investment and our future-forward approach, the Gulfstream next-generation fleet offers our customers the most innovative family of aircraft,” Burns said in a news release. “We know how important the super-midsize cabin segment is to our customers, so building on the highly successful G280 program, the G300 will reenergize the category with its heightened technology and safety enhancements, alongside the legendary comfort and styling of a Gulfstream.”

The G300’s Harmony flight deck includes six touchscreens, paired with phase-of-flight intelligence; a synthetic vision-primary flight display that depicts runways and terrain in 3D imagery; and Gulfstream’s Predictive Landing Performance System, which displays the runway stopping point in real time.
