Embraer Aircraft Deliveries Surge 47% in Q1 2026

Embraer delivered 44 aircraft in the first quarter of 2026, a 47% increase from 30 jets in the same period of 2025. The company attributed the improvement to advances in its production leveling initiatives.

In Commercial Aviation, Embraer handed over 10 aircraft, including three E195-E2 models, its largest jets in this segment. This marked a 43% rise from seven deliveries in Q1 2025.

Executive Aviation saw 29 jets delivered, up 26% from 23 the previous year, driven by demand for light and midsize models.

Defence & Security recorded five aircraft deliveries: one KC-390 Millennium multi-mission military transport and four A-29 Super Tucano aircraft, compared to none in Q1 2025.

Embraer forecasts 80 to 85 Commercial Aviation deliveries for full-year 2026, a midpoint 6% year-on-year growth. Executive Aviation projections stand at 160 to 170 jets, also implying 6% midpoint growth.
