Gulfstream Aerospace Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of

General Dynamics (NYSE:GD), today announced the all-new, super-midsize Gulfstream G300 as the latest

aircraft to join its next-generation fleet. The aircraft will replace the Gulfstream G280 and feature

signature Gulfstream Panoramic Oval Windows as well as an all-new Harmony Flight Deck, which includes

next-generation avionics to enhance safety and operational efficiency.

Gulfstream announced the G300 at its exclusive Discover the Difference customer event in Savannah.

During the event, Gulfstream President Mark Burns revealed a full-scale mock-up of the G300 and

showed photos of the first aircraft in production.

“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,” said Mark Burns, president, Gulfstream.

“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 combines trans-Atlantic range with short-field agility, covering 3,600 nautical miles/6,667

kilometers at Mach 0.80 or 3,000 nm/5,556 km at Mach 0.84. The aircraft features a maximum cruise

altitude of 45,000 feet/13,716 meters and the lowest cabin altitude in its class at 4,800 ft/1,463 m when

flying at 41,000 ft/12,497 m. This comes alongside 100% fresh air, a plasma ionization air purification

system and 10 Gulfstream Panoramic Oval Windows. With the longest cabin in its class and two living

areas, the G300 accommodates up to 10 passengers.

The G300 Harmony Flight Deck includes six touch screens, paired with Phase-of-Flight intelligence,

bringing intuitive technology to pilots. A Synthetic Vision-Primary Flight Display depicts runways and

terrain in 3D imagery to boost pilot situational awareness, and Gulfstream’s award-winning Predictive

Landing Performance System dynamically displays the runway stopping point in real time.

With an ideal combination of size, advanced avionics and aerodynamic design, the G300 is primed for

fast, efficient flight with its high-thrust Honeywell engines, coupled with the clean, swept Gulfstream wing

to support fuel-efficiency.

a reality for our customers as they look for an airplane that will exceed their expectations in the super-

midsize class,” added Burns.

Gulfstream has already accomplished nearly 22,000 hours of testing at its state-of-the-art lab facilities,

which includes an Integration Test Facility (ITF) with Iron Bird capability. The facility completed its “first

flight” last month. It has also completed nearly 2,000 ground test hours on the first aircraft as well as

started manufacturing two additional test aircraft.
