The Hawker 400 is a small twin-engine jet corporate aircraft. Initially designed and built by Mitsubishi, it has been further developed and updated by the Beech Aircraft Company. With a total production span lasting between 1978 and 2009, over 700 civilian versions of this aircraft were built. One of its variants, the Hawker 400XP, had its first flight on August 29, 1978, and production of this model began in 1978.
It is a small, low-winged twin-turbofan aircraft of all metal construction, flown by a crew of two pilots and accommodating eight passengers in a pressurized cabin. Thanks to its pair of Pratt & Whitney JT15D05 turbofan engines, the Hawker 400XP has a cruise speed of 450 knots, range of 1,180 nm, and climb rate of 4,020 feet per minute. One of the jet's most popular assets, its cockpit, is equipped with Collins Pro Line 4 avionics system, featuring Collins FCS-850 digital flight control system, Collins WXR-840 color weather radar, Collins ALT-55B radio altimeter, and Rosemount air data system.
Production of the Hawker 400XP ended in 2009, with over 700 civil models being built.
