Chinese Manufacturer Targets Gulfstream and Bombardier
China’s Comac has unveiled its new VIP business jet, the CBJ, at the Dubai Airshow 2025, marking a significant push into the large-cabin private jet market. The aircraft, based on the ARJ21-700 regional jet, offers a range of 2,700 nautical miles and a high-end cabin experience, with a price tag of around $38 million per airframe. While Comac faces challenges in gaining certification from Western regulators, the CBJ may appeal to buyers in China and other regions, particularly state-linked entities and charter operators. This development was first reported by AeroTime.
