Overview
Program history
Cessna developed the CJ4 beyond the CJ3 with a different swept-wing configuration and a larger cabin. Its Williams FJ44-4A installation distinguished it from the smaller CJ models. The Gen2 later refreshed cabin access and amenities while retaining the CJ4 platform’s underlying business-jet role.
