Cessna Citation II

The Cessna Citation II models are light corporate jets that Cessna stretched from the Citation I. The Model 550 was announced in September 1976, first flew on 31 January 1977 and was certified in March 1978. The II/SP is a single-pilot version, the improved S/II first flew on 14 February 1984, and the Citation Bravo, a stretched S/II with new avionics and more powerful Pratt and Whitney Canada PW530A turbofans, first flew on 25 April 1995. The United States Navy adopted a version of the S/II as the T-47A. The S/II is powered by two Pratt and Whitney Canada JT15D-4B turbofans of 2,500 pounds of thrust each. Production ceased in 2006 after 1,184 aircraft of all variants had been delivered.
