to the G550 CAEW-based EC-37B, like the NC-37B range-support aircraft, and will modify others for Australia's program, Northrop Grumman proposes the G550 for the J-Stars Recap; Dassault Aviation developed the Falcon 900 MPA and Falcon 2000 Maritime Multirole Aircraft for France (which delayed its Avsimar requirement), South Korea and the Japan Coast Guard with a mission system developed with L3 and Thales Group; Embraer delivered several EMB-145s as a platform for AEW&C, MPA and multi-intelligence; Classes Business jets can be categorized according to their size. Very light jets The very light jet (VLJ) is a classification initiated by the release of the Eclipse 500, on 31 December 2006, which was originally available at around US$1.5 million, cheaper than existing business jets and comparable with turboprop aircraft. Its introduction coincided with a speculative bubble for air taxi services, exemplified by DayJet, which ceased operations in September 2008. Eclipse Aviation failed to sustain its business model and filed for bankruptcy in February 2009. A MTOW limit was cited by engineering company Burns & McDonnell in 2005, Popular Mechanics in 2007, or GlobalSecurity.org. Cessna simultaneously developed the Citation Mustang, a six-place twinjet (2 crew + 4 passengers), followed by the Embraer Phenom 100 and the Honda Jet. Some VLJs such as the Eclipse and Mustang have no or limited lavatory facilities. They have a maximum takeoff weight lighter than the FAR Part 23 12,500 pounds limit, and are approved for single-pilot operation. They typically accommodate 6–7 passengers over a nmi average range, with a $M mean price. Light jets Light jets have been a staple of the business jet industry since the advent of the Learjet 23 in the early 1960s. They provide access to small airports and the speed to be an effective air travel tool. Aircraft of this class include: Beechcraft Premier Cessna CitationJet/CJ1/2/3 Cessna Citation II/Bravo/Ultra/Encore Hawker 400 Learjet 31 Learjet 40 Embraer Phenom 300 They typically accommodate 6–8 passengers over a nmi average range, with a $M mean price. Mid-size jets These aircraft are suitable for longer-range travel such as transcontinental flights and for travel with larger passenger capacity requirements. Aircraft of this class include: Citation Excel/XLS(+), Hawker 800/750/850/900/1000, Learjet 45 Learjet 60. They typically accommodate 9 passengers over a nmi average range, with a $M mean price. Super mid-size jets Super mid-size jets feature wide-body cabin space, high-altitude capability, speed, and long range. These jets combine transatlantic capability
