Business Jet Maker Posts Strong Revenue and Backlog Growth
Gulfstream closed 2025 with a significant increase in aircraft deliveries and strong demand, pushing parent company General Dynamics’ aerospace backlog to new heights. The company delivered 158 business jets for the full year, up from 136 in 2024, and posted $13.11 billion in revenue, a 16.5% year-over-year increase. The aerospace segment booked $15.5 billion in orders for the year, lifting the backlog to $21.83 billion. According to AeroTime, Gulfstream’s strong performance was driven by demand for new and refreshed models, including the G800, G700, and G600.
