SyberJet SJ36 Relaunch: Green Avionics & Emission-free APU

SyberJet returns to the light-jet market with the SJ36, promising greener systems and more cabin space.

The SyberJet SJ36 is being relaunched by US-based SyberJet Aircraft as a stretched SJ36 light jet featuring a proprietary avionics suite and an emission-less auxiliary power unit (APU). The company says the program targets business aviation customers who want improved cabin space, faster connectivity and lower environmental impact; certification is planned for late 2026 and initial production will take place at the Cedar City, Utah facility.

What’s new on the SyberJet SJ36

SyberJet is emphasizing sustainability and systems integration over a pure performance refresh. The stretched SJ36 airframe aims to deliver more cabin volume for typical light-jet missions, while the in-house avionics package promises enhanced connectivity and pilot workflow. The headline technical change is an emission-less APU — a system intended to provide electrical power on the ground without traditional fuel-burn emissions. SyberJet positions these upgrades as part of renewed US investment in light-jet manufacturing and green aviation tech.

  • Proprietary avionics suite designed for modern connectivity and pilot ergonomics
  • Emission-less auxiliary power unit (APU) to cut ground emissions and reduce fuel use
  • Initial production at Cedar City, Utah with certification targeted for late 2026

SyberJet’s announcement taps into two current trends: buyers seeking quieter, cleaner operations and OEMs (original equipment manufacturers) developing tighter software-hardware integration in the flight deck. For business aviation operators, the combination of a roomier cabin, improved avionics and a greener APU could reduce operating headaches at busy FBOs (fixed-base operators) and align with corporate sustainability goals.

While SyberJet has released core program goals and a timeline, details such as certification authority milestones, specific avionics vendors or the technical basis for the emission-less APU remain to be published. The planned late-2026 certification window gives the company time to complete flight testing, regulatory work and production ramp-up at its Cedar City facility, and the relaunch signals fresh investment into a US-built light-jet program.
