Gulfstream G700 vs Leonardo Aw189 vs Sikorsky S 92

The Gulfstream G700 is a long‑range, large‑cabin business jet optimized for intercontinental travel. It sits in a different category from the Leonardo (Agusta) AW189 and Sikorsky S‑92, which are medium and heavy helicopters designed for offshore transport, search and rescue, and utility missions. In range terms, the G700 is in the ultra‑long‑range class at roughly 7,500 nautical miles, allowing nonstop city pairs across oceans. The AW189 and S‑92 have far shorter helicopter ranges, typically on the order of a few hundred nautical miles depending on payload and reserves, with the S‑92 generally offering more fuel/payload flexibility for longer offshore legs than the AW189. Passenger capacity also reflects their missions: a G700 typically carries around 10–19 passengers in a high‑comfort executive layout, while the AW189 is commonly configured for about 16–19 passengers and the S‑92 often around 19 passengers in offshore seating, with both helicopters able to be reconfigured for SAR/medical roles where seats may be reduced for equipment and stretchers.
