McLean, Va. - Intelsat, operator of the world's largest integrated satellite and terrestrial networks and a leading provider of in-flight connectivity (IFC), will soon launch a fast, reliable multi-orbit connectivity service for Embraer E2 aircraft, beginning the day the aircraft is delivered. This is possible thanks to a new line-fit agreement with Embraer (NYSE: ERJ / B3: EMBR3), which allows the aircraft manufacturer to install the equipment during factory production.

"Intelsat is the first multi-orbit satellite on-board connectivity system with an electronically steered antenna (ESA) array to be installed at the Embraer factory. It provides passengers with reliable streaming connectivity from the moment the aircraft enters service," said Rob Baird, Director of OEM Programs at Intelsat. "Passengers on board Embraer E2 aircraft will soon benefit from multi-orbit connectivity that offers the same fast and reliable Internet access as at home thanks to wide coverage and low latency."

Under the buyer-provided equipment agreement to offer Intelsat's multi-orbit system as an installation option for Embraer's E2 aircraft, airline customers can order aircraft with the Intelsat ESA system installed and operational upon delivery.

"At Embraer, we pride ourselves on building the most efficient, reliable and comfortable narrow-body aircraft in the world and continuously developing technologies that improve aircraft performance and the passenger experience," said Martyn Holmes, CCO of Embraer Commercial Aviation. "With Intelsat's IFC system now available as standard, we are providing our airline customers with a highly optimized in-flight Wi-Fi experience that ensures their competitiveness and delights their passengers."

STOCKHOLM - Sweden is acquiring the KC-390. The NATO country joins a contract between the Netherlands and Austria with Embraer and orders four military transporters.

KC-390 for Sweden: Stockholm is realizing a procurement of the military transport announced in November 2024. The country is planning to order four aircraft and is joining an existing framework agreement with the buyer states of the Netherlands and Austria.

The KC-390 can load up to 26 tons of cargo and is also suitable for troop deployments.

Brazil's aircraft manufacturer Embraer still sees a lot of sales potential for its KC-390 military transporter, with a particular focus on Europe - for which the Brazilians have a final assembly line in Poland in mind. An offer that Poland cannot refuse?

Embraer has already made it in Portugal, Hungary, Austria, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Sweden: these European nations will fly KC-390s in the future, and the twin-engine aircraft is already in service in Portugal and Hungary. While Hungary has purchased a transport aircraft of this size for the first time, the KC-390 is replacing the old Lockheed C-130 Hercules for the Portuguese. The Netherlands, Austria and Sweden are also procuring the Brazilian design as a Hercules successor.

A replacement for the C-130 is also under discussion in Poland - although the Polish Air Force did receive the first of a planned five used C-130Hs from the US Air Force in 2022, which had previously been stored for years at the Davis-Monthan aircraft cemetery. The entire quintet was built in 1985 and is intended to replace the even older C-130Es, which rolled out of the factory in 1970. However, this is not really a forward-looking business - which is why Embraer is officially offering the Polish government the KC-390 as a long-term solution.

Poland "the perfect location"

Frederico Lemos, Head of Sales at Embraer's armaments division, has a special treat in store for Poland: "Poland is not just a potential customer for us, but a genuine long-term operational and industrial partner and the perfect location for the European assembly line that we want to develop." If Warsaw opts for the KC-390, all Embraer transporters destined for European countries could eventually be assembled in Poland - including the aircraft for its own military, of course.

600 new jobs?

For the government of the ambitious NATO partner, which currently invests four percent of its annual gross domestic product in the military, this would certainly be an argument that it could not easily ignore. Especially as the Brazilians are also feeding their offer with concrete estimates: "Aircraft assembly and the associated aftermarket system, including maintenance and training, could lead to added value of almost one billion US dollars and 600 new jobs," calculates Embraer.

Poland has not yet responded to the offer. However, the move shows that Embraer has done its homework - and is continuing to aggressively position its product as an alternative to the latest Hercules C-130J version with increased self-confidence.

Brazilian aircraft manufacturer Embraer (NYSE:ERJ) announced on Thursday that it expects aircraft deliveries to increase by up to 18% year-on-year by 2025.

The company plans to deliver up to 240 commercial and business aircraft. This is Embraer's response to continued strong demand and a continuation of its strategy to increase production.

For the current financial year, Embraer is forecasting deliveries of 77 to 85 aircraft in the commercial aviation segment. This would represent an increase on the 73 aircraft delivered in 2024.

In the business aircraft segment, the manufacturer anticipates deliveries of between 145 and 155 jets. This would be a significant increase compared to the 130 aircraft delivered in the previous year.

This planned increase in production reflects the robust demand in both the commercial aircraft and business jet segments and underlines Embraer's confidence in the market development of the coming years.

Austria's armed forces are looking forward to their new transport aircraft: four Embraer C-390s will replace the outdated Hercules fleet. The C-130Ks still have a while to go, but Austria's first C-390 is already under construction in Brazil.

Several million liters of Danube water will still be flowing through Vienna before it becomes a fully-fledged aircraft, but Embraer has already given the go-ahead for the construction of the first C-390 for Austria at the Gavião Peixoto plant: In the presence of a delegation from the Alpine republic, the aircraft manufacturer from Brazil officially kicked off the structural assembly of the first new military transport aircraft for Austria at a small ceremony on February 14. The four versions of the aircraft will replace the old Lockheed C-130Ks of the Austrian Armed Forces by 2030 at the latest.

Together with the Netherlands, Austria confirmed its order for the Embraer C-390 in July 2024. Both countries are replacing their Hercules transporters with the new aircraft. While the Dutch ordered five C-390s, Austria signed for four, which will be stationed at the air transport squadron at Linz Airport in future. The delivery of the Brazilian twin-engine aircraft is planned from 2028, and the start of structural assembly is now on schedule.

C-390 "sets new standards"

For Bosco da Costa Junior, head of the Embraer armaments division, the start of construction of the first Austrian C-390 logically marked an important milestone. "We are thrilled that we can start production of the first aircraft for Austria and we look forward to delivering the first aircraft to the Austrian Air Force soon," explained the manager on the sidelines of the ceremony at the Embraer factory airfield in Gavião Peixoto - and did not fail to drum up publicity for "his" aircraft once again. As a medium-sized multi-role aircraft for air transport, the C-390 "sets new standards", said da Costa Junior: "It offers an unbeatable combination of state-of-the-art technology, reliability and low operating costs with unsurpassed performance."

Successful in the export business

Embraer has so far received orders for the C-390 from a total of nine countries. The largest and most important customer is the Brazilian military - despite the reduction of the order from the original 28 to just 19 aircraft for budget reasons. In addition to Austria and the Netherlands, Portugal (five aircraft), Hungary (two), the Czech Republic (two), Sweden (four), Slovakia (three) and South Korea (three) have also ordered the C-390. There is also an order from an as yet undisclosed customer, presumably Uzbekistan, for a further two jets. Other interested parties include South Africa, Greece, India and Colombia.

Flexjet orders 182 aircraft from Embraer and also secures options for further aircraft. It is the largest order in the company's history.

Flexjet continues its growth trajectory for the third year in a row. In 2023, the US business charter provider doubled its fleet of aircraft based in Malta and the United Kingdom. Last year, the airline announced plans to build its first private jet terminal in Europe at Farnborough Airport by 2026. Now the next step follows: Flexjet places a large order with Embraer.

The US company is ordering 182 aircraft from the Brazilian aircraft manufacturer and has secured options for a further 30 aircraft. The order also includes an extended service and support offer. According to the announcement, the order is worth seven billion dollars, making it the largest firm order in the history of both companies.

Fleet will double in size

This order will almost double the size of Flexjet's fleet over the next five years. Flexjet has ordered the Praetor 600, Praetor 500 and Phenom 300E models. "We are pleased to continue to offer Flexjet's customers access to our market-leading Phenom jets and our Praetor jets, the best in their respective categories," says Michael Amalfitano, Head of Embraer Executive Jets.

The partnership between Embraer and Flexjet began in 2003, and today Flexjet relies on the Praetor 600, Praetor 500 and Phenom 300 series, with the current fleet comprising a total of 128 Embraer jets. The press release also states that the Praetor 600 has been so well received in Europe that it has also been included in the North American fleet since 2023.

In addition to national carrier Miat Mongolian Airlines, there are four other Mongolian airlines, of which only three currently offer scheduled flights: Miat, Aero Mongolia and Hunnu Air. All of them are planning to expand their fleets. Hunnu Air currently operates two Embraer E190s. In March 2025, according to analyst Brendon Sobie, the airline will be leasing an Embraer E195-E2. This will be the first brand new aircraft to be put into service by a privately owned airline in Mongolia, he emphasizes.

On December 31, 2024, Embraer signed a contract for the sale of four A-29 Super Tucano aircraft to an undisclosed customer in Africa.

The aircraft will perform a wide range of tasks, such as border surveillance, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR), close air support, counterinsurgency and pilot training.

Embraer had already announced a firm order for six A-29 Super Tucanos from an undisclosed customer on December 30, 2024. Deliveries are scheduled for 2026.

These aircraft will be equipped with enhanced capabilities to carry out missions such as air defense, close air support and also patrol flights over the sea.

According to Embraer, the A-29 offers high operational flexibility and can be used on unpaved runways in harsh environments thanks to its robust airframe.

Embraer considers the A-29 Super Tucano to be the world leader in its category with over 290 orders and more than 570000 flight hours, 60000 of which are in service. Prior to the current orders, the Brazilian company had already announced sales of the Super Tucano to the Portuguese Air Force (A-29N), the Uruguayan Air Force and the Paraguayan Air Force in 2014.

In Azerbaijan, the theory that the Embraer E190 of Azerbaijan Airlines was accidentally shot at by Russia is considered likely. And claims that the plane was refused permission to land.

The holes were puzzling: shortly after the crash of an Embraer E190 from Azerbaijan Airlines, photos showing holes in the tail unit and fuselage made the rounds. Many observers suspected that they could be bullet holes or shrapnel. According to the local portal Caliber, the investigators in Azerbaijan apparently think so too.

It claims to have learned from reliable government sources that the Azerbaijani authorities assume that flight J28243 was shot at by the Russian Pantir-S missile defense system as it approached its target in Grozny. A Ukrainian drone attack on the Chechen capital took place at the same time. This was confirmed by the government of the republic. However, there is said to have been no damage.

Heavy fog not confirmed in weather data

According to the authorities, the Embraer E190 with the registration number 4K-AZ65 was unable to land in Grozny due to poor visibility. Apparently at least two attempts had failed. The cockpit crew then looked for alternatives. However, according to Caliber, they were not given permission to land at the Russian alternative airports of Makhachkala and Mineralnye Vody.

The Embraer E190 was sent to Aktau - i.e. over the Caspian Sea. This means a distance of around 450 kilometers. The day after the crash, Azerbaijan Airlines announced that it was suspending all flights to Chechnya and Dagestan.

Airspace was not closed

If it really was an accidental attack, Russia would be under pressure to explain itself. If there is a risk of a drone attack or if one is already underway, the airspace in the area must be closed to civilian aircraft. This was not the case over Chechnya at the time. Russia still rejects the accusations of a possible bombardment.

The only thing that has been officially proven so far is that the cockpit crew of Azerbaijan Airlines sent the transponder code 7700 over the Caspian Sea. It stands for an air emergency. Videos taken at the airport show the E190, which was delivered in 2013, descending rapidly. It then turns to the right and hits the ground. Flames can be seen rising, later black smoke. The result of the tragic crash of flight J28243 on December 25: 40 dead and 29 survivors.
