The Sao Jose dos Campos-based manufacturer delivered 47% more aircraft last quarter than one year prior.
Embraer delivered 44 aircraft in the first quarter of 2026, an improvement from the same period last year but down significantly from its strong operational performance in the final three months of 2025.
The Brazilian manufacturer’s deliveries in the first quarter included 10 commercial jets, among them six E175s, one E190-E2 and three E195-E2s, Embraer said on 2 April.
Also last quarter it delivered 29 executive aircraft, including 16 Phenom light jets and 13 midsize Praetors.
Additionally, the company’s defence division handed over one KC-390 heavy transport and four A-29 Super Tucano light-attack turboprops in the first quarter.
Embraer’s total 44 aircraft deliveries in the period compares to the 30 aircraft it delivered in the first quarter of 2025.
The company is coming off a particularly strong end to last year, having delivered 91 aircraft in the fourth quarter.
