Was a 19 august 1969 when Embraer was legally formalized as a Brazilian company for the manufacture of aircraft on a massive scale.
History
The brief history of Embraer was born before a project of the Brazilian government and the Technological Institute of Aeronautics, with a focus on the training of aeronautical engineers, where Ozires Silva graduated from 1962, which later participated and coordinated the development of a specific aircraft for the regional aviation of his country.
The Embraer Bandeirante was born from this project in 1968 with the first flight, which thanks to its great market acceptance, generated the birth of Embraer indirectly.
During the decade of the 70, the Bandeirante gained importance in the market worldwide, including the United States and simultaneously, Embraer applied innovative solutions to its first customers in the agricultural aviation segments, commercial and executive. Among the aircraft presented were the Ipanema, the Xavante and the Xingu, in addition to an assembly line in association with the American company Piper.
Stop now 1980, Embraer introduces new aircraft specifically targeted at the defense and commercial aviation markets. in this niche, Embraer partnered with Aeritália (today Alenia) and Macchi (hoy Aermacchi), to develop its first combat aircraft the AMX. Embraer also gave life to the EMB 312 Toucan.
In the commercial segment, the Embraer was presented 120 Brasilia, a pressurized model that integrated the most advanced technologies of the time. It was considered the most widely used regional aircraft in the world., surpassing the mark of 350 units operated by 26 airlines in 14 countries.
in the middle of the 90, Embraer conducted an extensive study of the regional aviation market, that's where the ERJ was born 145, a narrow-body twin-engine jet for 37-50 passengers. In line with market demands, the aircraft was so successful that it spawned an entire family of Embraer regional jets: ERJ 135, ERJ 140, ERJ 145 and the ERJ 145XR.
At the beginning of the decade of the 2000, announced the E-Jets program with capacity for between 70 and 130 passengers and also, Embraer intensified its participation in the executive jet segment, developing the Legacy and Phenom families, in addition to the Lineage 1000E.
From 2009, the KC-390, the first multi-mission military cargo aircraft developed with the Brazilian Air Force began development and Embraer announced the new E-Jets E2 family the quietest and most efficient commercial aircraft, with up 150 seating, plus the new Praetor business jet.
The most recent project is to develop an eVTOL-type aircraft (electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicle) to innovate in the world industry under new technological trends.
Now, in the new alliance with Boeing significant growth and new developments are expected in conjunction with its new strategic business partner.
