Overview
Program history
The CJ4 Gen2 updated the established CJ4 with a revised entrance, cabin features and passenger experience. Its development continued the largest CJ platform rather than replacing it with a different size of jet. The Gen3 subsequently introduced a more extensive change to the flight-deck architecture.
