Embraer delivers record 66 aircraft in third quarter

Embraer delivered 66 aircraft in the third quarter of 2026, its strongest July-to-September performance on record. The total included 22 commercial aircraft, 41 executive jets and three defence aircraft, with the result supported by continued production-leveling efforts at the Brazilian manufacturer’s São Paulo operation.

Commercial Aviation accounted for 22 deliveries, split evenly between 11 E175s and 11 E2-family jets. Executive Aviation delivered 41 business jets, while Defense & Security handed over one KC-390 Millennium and two A-29 Super Tucanos.

The quarterly total was up 6% from a year earlier and 2% from the second quarter. Deliveries for the first nine months reached 175 aircraft, a 14% increase from 153 in the same period of 2025. Embraer kept its 2026 guidance unchanged, targeting 80 to 85 commercial aircraft deliveries and 160 to 170 executive jets for the year.
