1. A process for hydroprocessing a biorenewable feedstock, the process comprising:
hydrotreating said biorenewable feed stream in the presence of hydrogen over a hydrotreating catalyst to hydrodeoxygenate said biorenewable feed stream to provide a hydrotreated stream;
hydroisomerizing a hydroisomerization feed stream in a hydroisomerization reactor taken from said hydrotreated stream in the presence of hydrogen over a hydroisomerization catalyst to provide a hydroisomerized stream;
separating said hydrotreated stream and/or said hydroisomerized stream into a hydroprocessed vapor stream and a hydroprocessed liquid stream;
distilling said hydroprocessed liquid stream or said hydroisomerized stream, optionally after stripping, to produce a jet fuel stream and a diesel stream; and
hydrocracking said diesel stream in a hydrocracking reactor to provide a hydrocracked stream comprising jet fuel.
