Design and Powerplant

Original Engines (Falcon 2000): Two CFE CFE738-1-1B turbofan engines, each producing 5,918 lbf (26.32 kN) of thrust.
Current Engines (2000EX/LXS): Two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW308C turbofan engines, each producing 7,000 lbf (31.14 kN) of thrust.
Fuselage: Shares the same wide-body fuselage diameter as the larger Falcon 900, shortened by about 7 feet.
Avionics: Modern variants (EX EASy and later) feature the Honeywell Primus Epic-based EASy flight deck, improving situational awareness and pilot workload.
Aerodynamics: Later models (LX/LXS) include distinctive Blended Winglets to improve range and efficiency.

Performance and Key Variants

Max Cruise Speed: Mach 0.85 (approx. 904 km/h or 488 knots).
Maximum Range (2000LXS): 7,408 km (4,000 nautical miles) at Mach 0.80.
Service Ceiling: 14,326 m (47,000 ft).
Runway Performance: The 2000LXS is known for excellent short-field capabilities, with a landing distance (typical) of only 689 m (2,260 ft), allowing access to more challenging airports.
Major Variants:
