In executive aviation, Embraer delivered 29 jets, up from 23 in the first quarter of 2025. The mix included 15 Phenom 300s, one Phenom 100, nine Praetor 500s and four Praetor 600s, indicating growth in both light and midsize segments.
The Defense & Security division recorded five deliveries, comprising one KC-390 Millennium and four A-29 Super Tucano aircraft. No military aircraft had been delivered in the same period last year.
For 2026, Embraer expects to deliver between 80 and 85 commercial aircraft and 160 to 170 executive jets, with projected growth of around 6% in both segments.
In the first quarter of 2025, the company delivered 30 aircraft in total — seven commercial and 23 executive — with no defense deliveries.
Despite the increase, production remains uneven across the year, with deliveries still concentrated in later quarters. Embraer also continues to target a return to annual commercial aircraft deliveries above 100 units only in the coming years.
