Embraer says it needs 200 aircraft orders from Indian airlines to make an E175 facility in the country viable. Would securing that number this year be unprecedented?
Embraer needs firm orders for 200 aircraft if its plan to establish a final assembly line in India is to come to fruition, CEO Francisco Gomes Neto said.
Embraer has signed an MOU with India’s Hindalco Industries that could result in the Brazilian OEM sourcing aerospace-grade aluminum from the South Asian nation.
Northrop Grumman and Embraer said they would partner to offer the Brazilian aircraft maker’s KC-390 to the U.S. Air Force, confirming a Feb. 18 report by Aviation Week.
The Brazilian airframer wants to take advantage of the huge growth of India’s air transport industry. But regional flying must first become a viable business.
Saab expects partner Embraer to deliver the first Gripen E from a new Brazilian assembly line to the country’s air force before April, a company exec says.
The number of E2 jets on the ground due to issues with the PW1900G is now down to five and will soon be zero, according to Embraer Commercial Aviation's CEO.
Engine-makers are fighting to match production rates to those of Airbus and Boeing. But as single-aisle delivery rates continue to increase, can they keep up?
Embraer believes its success in securing high-profile customers for E2s in a handful of key Asia-Pacific markets will help generate more demand in the region.
