The Gulfstream G280 is a twin-engine business jet built by Israel Aerospace Industries for Gulfstream Aerospace, with deliveries beginning in 2012. It began as the G250, a follow-on to the Gulfstream G200 launched in 2008, and was renamed G280 in July 2011. The G250 first flew on 11 December 2009 in Tel Aviv, and the aircraft gained full Israeli and United States certification on 4 September 2012. Gulfstream designed the wing, tail and interior, while Israel Aerospace Industries did the detailed design and builds the fuselage, tail and landing gear; the aircraft is assembled in Israel and then flown to Dallas for interior finishing and painting. Two Honeywell HTF7250G turbofans power it, and it can fly about 3,600 nautical miles at Mach 0.80. The Philippine Air Force operates one.
