Gulfstream launches G400 and G800

During a live-stream event on 4 October 2021, Gulfstream Aerospace has announced it will launch two new business jets, the G400 and the G800.

The G400 will fill the gap between the G280 and the G500, and has seating for up to eleven passengers. It features Pratt & Whitney PW812GA engines and a 7,778 km (4,200 nm) range. The engines are in the same PW800 range as the Gulfstream G500 and G600.

The G800 will be the longest-range Gulfstream jet so far, as it boasts a range of 14,816 kilometers (8,000 nm) at Mach 0.85 cruise speed. The G800 is powered by Rolls-Royce Pearl 700 engines, which also feature on the G700. The G800 will seat up to nineteen passengers, a number it shares with the G650 and G700.

The G800 was rolled out at the ceremony and will begin deliveries in 2023 already, while the first G400 deliveries are anticipated in 2025. The announcement brings the full Gulfstream lineup to the G280, G400, G500, G600, G650, G700 and G800.
