Gulfstream G550
N38NG · ICAO: A45A24 · Heavy jet
Northrop Grumman Corporation — one of the five US defense primes, ~$41B revenue, ~97,000 employees. Corporate HQ at 2980 Fairview Park Drive, Falls Church VA; Aeronautics Systems is headquartered at 1 Hornet Way, El Segundo CA, the address on all four aircraft registrations. Principal programs include the B-21 Raider, the LGM-35A Sentinel ICBM, the James Webb Space Telescope bus, Triton and Global Hawk, and the F-35 centre fuselage.
Fleet of four, all held directly by Northrop Grumman Systems Corp rather than through a trustee — unusual candour for a company of this size, and the reason this entry ships without a `planeOwner` override. N38NG (2015) and N37NG (2018) are Gulfstream G550s, the standard large-cabin corporate pairing for a prime with sites strung between California, Utah, Alabama, Maryland and Florida. N37WH is a 1994 Gulfstream IV, the oldest airframe of the four and the one inherited from the Northrop/Grumman-era flight department. N804X is the odd one out: a 1999 Bombardier CL-600-2C10 — a CRJ-700, and MSN 10002, the second of the type ever built — operated as a flying testbed rather than as transport.
Nothing on a military registration is tracked here. Published sightings put N38NG at Los Angeles repeatedly, plus Dallas/Fort Worth, Offutt AFB, Gulfport, Stansted and Luton, Warsaw and Ottawa — the travel pattern of a prime servicing customer sites and overseas programs, not a single-hub executive shuttle.
Note · Celebplanes tracks Northrop Grumman's registered aircraft — not Northrop Grumman personally. ADS-B data shows when and where the plane moved; who was aboard any given flight is unknown.

Flight data is recorded when aircraft are detected by ADS-B. Check back later.
Yes. Celebplanes tracks 4 aircraft associated with Northrop Grumman: a Gulfstream G550 (N38NG), a Gulfstream G550 (N37NG), a Gulfstream IV (N37WH) and a Bombardier CRJ-700 (N804X). Every movement is logged from the public ADS-B broadcast, so the flight history on this page is a record of the aircraft, not of who was aboard.
Northrop Grumman flies 3 aircraft: Gulfstream G550, Gulfstream IV, Bombardier CRJ-700 (N38NG, N37NG, N37WH, N804X). Live tracking, full flight history, and CO₂ emissions for each aircraft are available on this page.
Northrop Grumman owns 4 tracked aircraft across 3 types: N38NG (Gulfstream G550), N37NG (Gulfstream G550), N37WH (Gulfstream IV) and N804X (Bombardier CRJ-700). This is the count Celebplanes can evidence from public registration and ADS-B records; aircraft held through undisclosed entities or chartered rather than owned would not appear here.
Northrop Grumman flies a Gulfstream G550 — Ultra Long Range class, 6,750 nm range, seating up to 19 (registration N38NG). 3 further aircraft are tracked on this page: Gulfstream G550 (N37NG), Gulfstream IV (N37WH) and Bombardier CRJ-700 (N804X).
Northrop Grumman flies a Gulfstream G550 (N38NG). Pre-owned examples typically ask $14–25 million — indicative mid-2026 market figures, not an appraisal. Actual value turns on airframe hours, engine-programme enrolment and cabin configuration.
Northrop Grumman's private jet tail numbers are N38NG (Gulfstream G550), N37NG (Gulfstream G550), N37WH (Gulfstream IV), N804X (Bombardier CRJ-700). Each registration links to the live tracking page with full flight history, fuel burn and CO₂ emissions on Celebplanes.

Northrop Grumman's Gulfstream G550 (N38NG) burns roughly 410 gallons of Jet-A per hour, which converts to about 3,939 kg of CO₂ per flight hour — equivalent to roughly 9,749 miles of average passenger-car driving.
Northrop Grumman's home base is Los Angeles Intl (KLAX / LAX), with frequent destinations including KIAD, KDFW, KOFF, KGPT.
Yes. Every transponder-equipped aircraft broadcasts unencrypted ADS-B position data continuously, by FAA mandate. Celebplanes aggregates this public broadcast from ADSB Exchange, ADSB.fi, FlightRadar24 and airplanes.live — the same sources used by news outlets and academic researchers.
