Model overview

About the Learjet 45XR

The 45XR upgraded the Learjet 45 with improved TFE731-20BR engine performance for better hot-and-high capability, payload and climb. Its cabin is longer than the 40XR and typically seats eight in a double-club arrangement.

Production gave way to the Learjet 75 in 2013. The 45XR remains a recognizable charter and corporate platform with a strong balance of speed and operating capability.
