Hawker 4000

 

The appeal of the Hawker 4000 is easily stated: it is the most advanced and luxurious super-midsize business jet in the world. Period.

With its sophisticated composite fuselage, supercritical wing, powerful Pratt & Whitney Canada FADEC-controlled engines and state-of-the-art Honeywell Primus EPIC avionics, the Hawker 4000 simplifies the lives of busy executives and helps maximize their productivity. In fact, with an outstanding balance of speed, efficiency, comfort and responsiveness—plus a 3,280 nautical-mile range—the Hawker 4000 serves as the indispensable business tool, getting them wherever they need to be … whenever they need to be there.

In 1932, Walter and Olive Ann Beech founded Beech Aircraft Corporation, which became synonymous with innovative, high-quality aircraft, like the legendary Beechcraft Bonanza, Baron, King Air and later the Beechjet in 1985 and the renowned Hawker in 1994.

Sold to Raytheon Company in 1980, it was renamed Raytheon Aircraft in 1994. 

The company’s innovative mastery of composites made it the leading general-aviation, special-mission and trainer aircraft company in advanced technology design and manufacture with the Beechcraft Premier and flagship Hawker 4000.

The company became Hawker Beechcraft Corporation in 2007 when purchased by Onex Partners and GS Capital Partners – combining its two world-renowned brands, Hawker and Beechcraft, in its new company name.
