This June, the aerospace world turns its attention once more to the iconic Le Bourget airport for the Paris Air Show, and Embraer is ready to make a resounding statement. As a global leader renowned for innovation, reliability, and adaptability across commercial aviation, defence, and burgeoning urban mobility, Embraer’s presence at this prestigious event underscores not only its impressive sales momentum but also its unwavering commitment to technological progress and international cooperation.
At the heart of the static and flying displays are Embraer’s star performers: the E195-E2 and the KC-390 Millennium. The E195-E2, known as the world’s most efficient small narrowbody jet, epitomizes Embraer’s philosophy of combining breakthrough technology with real-world operational efficiency. Sleek, sophisticated, and sustainable, the E195-E2 is capturing attention for good reason—it is changing the dynamics of regional and short-haul travel for airlines and passengers alike. Alongside it stands the formidable KC-390 Millennium, a multi-mission airlifter and tanker that is redefining flexibility and capability for military forces around the globe.
But Embraer’s ambitions soar even higher—quite literally. The E195-E2 and the KC-390 Millennium will not only be admired up close but will dazzle in dynamic flight displays, showcasing their agility, endurance, and cutting-edge features. Complementing these are the A-29 Super Tucano, ever-reliable as a light attack and advanced trainer, and a true favourite among military customers for its versatility and proven performance.
The Paris Air Show is also the stage for future-focused dialogues, and here Embraer’s innovative spirit shines bright through its subsidiary, Eve. Urban air mobility is rapidly moving from concept to reality, and with the eVTOL aircraft project, Eve is poised to revolutionize sustainable urban transport. Expect exciting updates as Eve presents not only technological progress but a comprehensive vision for services and operational integration, laying the groundwork for tomorrow’s air transit ecosystems.
This year’s Paris Air Show is much more than a showcase. It’s a celebration of partnerships, progress, and shared ambitions. Embraer’s CEO, Francisco Gomes Neto, effortlessly captures the sentiment, highlighting Le Bourget as Embraer’s European home for over four decades and reiterating the company’s dedication to collaboration and innovation on the continent. Embraer’s activities in Europe are significant, supporting over 700 aircraft, collaborating deeply within the local supply chain, and driving technology partnerships that boost high-value jobs and economic growth across borders.
Yet Embraer’s impact is truly global. Since its founding in 1969, the company has delivered over 9,000 aircraft—an astonishing testament to its reach and reliability, with an Embraer-made aircraft taking off somewhere in the world every 10 seconds. As the leading manufacturer of commercial jets up to 150 seats and Brazil’s most important exporter of high-value manufactured goods, Embraer’s legacy is forged in the skies and sustained by innovation.
As the Paris Air Show unfolds, Embraer stands not just as a manufacturer but as a visionary shaping the skies of tomorrow. With sales surging, products that inspire, and commitments to sustainability and collaboration, Embraer’s presence in Paris is a powerful reminder: the future of flight is both bright and within reach, and Embraer is charting the way forward with boundless enthusiasm.
