Embraer Q1 Deliveries Jump 47% to 44 Jets on Smoother Production

Overview

• Embraer disclosed Friday it delivered 44 aircraft in the first quarter of 2026, a 47% jump that it linked to production leveling that spreads work across the year.
• Commercial Aviation delivered 10 jets, including three E195-E2s, up from seven a year earlier.
• Executive Aviation handed over 29 light and midsize jets, a 26% rise that reflects steady demand for private travel.
• Defence & Security resumed deliveries with one KC-390 military transport and four A-29 Super Tucano aircraft after none last year.
• The pace aligns with 2026 targets of 80–85 commercial jets and 160–170 executive jets, supported by a $31.6 billion order backlog reported in March.
