Am I missing something or is this supposed to be an aircraft? I was thrown off by referencing speed and distance as knots and nautical miles.

It's a new light jet. They're going to mass produce them on an assembly line. Expect a big traffic jam of private jets on the runways in the future.

All aviation references went to speed references in knots and range in "the long mile" about 12 years ago.

It's the international standard.
