Embraer delivered 44 aircraft during the first quarter of 2026, a 47% rise from the 30 jets handed over in the prior year’s corresponding period. Production enhancements contributed to this uptick across its divisions.
The commercial aviation unit transferred ten planes, including three E195-E2 models, Embraer’s largest in that category. That marked a 43% gain over the seven delivered in early 2025.
Executive aviation led with 29 jets delivered, reflecting 26% growth from 23 the previous year, fueled by demand for light and midsize models.
Defense and security saw five aircraft go out: one KC-390 Millennium transport and four A-29 Super Tucano trainers, compared to none a year earlier.
For the full year, Embraer projects 80 to 85 commercial deliveries, a 6% midpoint increase, and 160 to 170 executive jets, matching that growth rate.
