General Dynamics’ profits jumped more than 27 percent in the first quarter as the company’s aerospace business is expected to begin making deliveries of its new long-range executive jet later this summer.

Based in Reston, Virginia, the aerospace and military contractor provides a range of products and services for the Pentagon and other U.S. government agencies, as well as private sector and commercial customers worldwide.
