Challenger 300 Specifications
Performance
With a maximum range of approximately 3,100 nautical miles and a top operating speed of Mach 0.83, the Challenger 300 is designed for coast-to-coast, transcontinental, and selected international missions. Its 45,000 ft service ceiling, published runway performance, and mature support ecosystem make it a relevant aircraft for buyers evaluating capability, acquisition cost, and mission fit.
Powerplant
The Challenger 300 is powered by two Honeywell HTF7000 turbofan engines, each rated at approximately 6,826 pounds of thrust. This powerplant pairing defines much of the aircraft's climb, cruise, maintenance, and operating-cost profile, especially for legacy operators comparing engine programs and inspection status.
Operating Weights
Operating weights dictate the structural limits and mission profile of the aircraft. With an MTOW of 38,850 lbs, the Challenger 300 offers a high payload-to-range ratio.
