History:
The Gulfstream V is the world’s first ultra-long-range business jet. It had been selected by the United States Air Force (USAF) for the VC-X program to expand the mission capability of the nation's Special Air Mission Wing. The Gulfstream V features the most sophisticated technology available to support the rigorous demands of intercontinental missions and is the first civil aviation aircraft to be equipped with the FAA-certified Gulfstream Enhanced Vision System™ (EVS).
With an astonishing non-stop range of 6,500 nautical miles, the Gulfstream V offers unparalleled performance and unprecedented comfort - even at 51,000 feet. With speeds up to Mach .87, the Gulfstream V can reach any destination in the world in record time.
The Gulfstream has a passenger capacity of 12-15 people. The benefits of flying on the Gulfstream V private jet include convenience, safety, security and luxury.
