As a response to the greatest historical crisis in world commercial aviation, Embraer presented its new prototypes of regional turboprop aircraft. Photo Embraer.
Still as a prototype revealed in an official tweet from Embraer and without being the final design, although it reminds us of the Embraer 120 and also a little to the E-jet, plus another proposal of 4 motors, two new turboprop aircraft would be on the drawing board in Brazil.
For several years, the possibility of Embraer once again presenting a turboprop passenger plane to the market has been heard., his latest model, the great embraer 120 which is still a success in many countries of the world such as Australia, Brazil, Colombia, France, Mexico, Russia, Spain, United States and others.
With a T-shaped tail it would appear to be an aircraft that could compete in capacity between 70 a 90 passengers (not yet announced, but counting the 21 render windows) with planes like the Dash and ATR, which are currently the most sought-after models in this category worldwide for flights of up to 2 Hours of duration.
In July, Embraer revealed plans under study on the drawing board to re-create a turboprop aircraft during the Farnborough Airshow virtual conference, but 29 Last October on his official Twitter account he made public a possible design that this new aircraft could have, but he clarified that it was for "illustrative topics only".
This new program would be in its second year of three in total that would take Embraer to officially present this project to potential airlines, in a post-pandemic world, where demand will take years to recover, Aircraft of this capacity will be the "new normal".
STOUT
The second proposal appears to be a response to the needs of military operators looking to replace aircraft like the legendary C-130 Hercules from their fleets and to compete, although on a smaller scale with Airbus and its A400M Atlas.
The STOUT o Short Take Off Utility Transport, was presented "unofficially" by the Commander of the Brazilian Air Force, Air Lieutenant Antonio Carlos Moretti during the National Defense Seminar of the Ministry of Defense.
In this presentation, a concept aircraft was shown for a new light transport aircraft that Embraer, together with the FAB they would be working together to be able to serve the complicated and distant airports in the vast Brazil and that would obviously have a great reception worldwide.
More details will surely be known later., if the projects advance.
