Yes, Boeing gave a 717 designation to 707 models that were destined for Military uses, however this was little known, so they reused the name on the McDonnell Douglas MD-95.

Yes, but I also thought they used the name on the 720 (for awhile).


the 720 was a faster longer range model of the 707. The Dodgers baseball team used one for many years.

Actually, during the early promotion stage, the 720 was known as the 717, but was then renamed the 720. Then that title went to the military variations of the 707.
