Bombardier Challenger 3500 vs Bombardier Global 7500 vs Dassault Falcon 10x vs Dassault Falcon 7x vs Dassault Falcon 8x vs Embraer Praetor 600 vs Gulfstream G400 vs Gulfstream G600 vs Gulfstream G700

The Embraer Praetor 600 and Bombardier Challenger 3500 sit in the super‑midsize/large‑cabin edge, typically carrying about 8–10 passengers with ranges around 4,000 nautical miles (Praetor 600 about 4,000+ nm; Challenger 3500 about 3,400+ nm). Stepping up, the Gulfstream G400 is a large‑cabin, long‑range aircraft at roughly the mid‑4,000 nm class with about 8–10 passengers in typical layouts, while the Gulfstream G600 and Dassault Falcon 7X/8X occupy the true long‑range large‑cabin tier: the G600 is around 6,600 nm, the Falcon 7X about 5,950 nm, and the Falcon 8X about 6,450 nm, commonly configured for roughly 12–16 passengers. At the ultra‑long‑range flagship level, the Gulfstream G700 and Bombardier Global 7500 offer the biggest cabins and longest legs, around 7,500+ nm (G700 about 7,750 nm; Global 7500 about 7,700 nm) with typical capacities around 14–19. The Dassault Falcon 10X targets this same top tier, aiming for about 7,500 nm and a very large cabin, typically planned around the mid‑teens in passengers.
