Operational Context

Hawker 850XP — midsize business jet

The 850XP first flew in 2005 and entered service in 2006. Winglets improved efficiency and extended range compared with earlier variants. The cockpit featured updated avionics for enhanced situational awareness.

Two Honeywell TFE731 turbofan engines producing approximately 4,660 pounds of thrust (21 kN) each power the aircraft. Cruise speed approaches 450 knots (833 km/h). Maximum takeoff weight exceeds 28,000 pounds (12,701 kg), with range near 2,700 nautical miles (5,000 km).

The 850XP served corporate and charter operators globally. Its blend of performance and comfort sustained strong demand. Production ended as newer models entered the market.
