The '''Gulfstream Aerospace Peregrine''' was a single-engine [[business jet]] prototype aircraft developed in the United States by [[Gulfstream Aerospace]] in the early 1980s. It was developed from the company's [[Gulfstream American Hustler|Hustler]] business aircraft and the company's military trainer aircraft, the [[Gulfstream Peregrine 600|Peregrine 600]].<ref name="MD"/>

==Design and development==

The Peregrine was originally known as the '''Commander Fanjet 1500''',<ref>[http://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1983/1983%20-%201001.html "Gulfstream plans Fanjet 1500 development."
