Embraer is the world’s third-largest builder of commercial jets and the leading manufacturer of aircraft in the 70-150-seat segment. Headquartered in São José dos Campos, Brazil, with final assembly there and business-jet production in Melbourne, Florida, the group spans four businesses: Commercial Aviation (the E-Jet E2 family), Executive Jets (Phenom and Praetor), Defense & Security (the C-390 Millennium transport and A-29 Super Tucano), and Services & Support, plus Eve Air Mobility, its listed eVTOL venture. This page gathers every AirPro News story on the company, newest first.
What we watch
- E2 orders and deliveries. The E190-E2 and E195-E2 compete with the Airbus A220 for regional and mainline fleets, and Embraer’s order campaigns in the United States, Europe and Asia are a bellwether for that segment.
- The C-390 Millennium. The multi-mission transport has won a string of European and other air forces and is the programme with the most upside in Embraer’s defence business.
- Executive jets. Phenom 100 and 300 series and Praetor 500 and 600 deliveries, the Melbourne production line and the fractional and charter fleets that buy them.
- Services and the supply chain. Component and MRO agreements, Embraer’s own service centres, and how the company manages the same engine and supplier constraints as the larger OEMs.
- What comes next. Studies for a new aircraft family, turboprop concepts, Eve’s eVTOL certification and the partnerships Embraer signs to fund them.
