Uruguayan Air Force buys five Embraer A-29 Super Tucano
by converting options into firm orders
| · | Uruguay becomes the sixth nation to operate the A-29 in South America |
Montevideo,
Uruguay, January 14, 2025 – Embraer (NYSE: ERJ/B3: EMBR3) today announced that the Uruguayan Air Force (FAU) and the Uruguayan
Ministry of National Defense (MDN) have converted options for five A-29 Super Tucano aircraft into firm orders. The agreement is part
of a commitment signed in August 2024, when the FAU has announced a firm order for one aircraft plus the options that have now been converted.
The agreement also includes mission equipment, integrated logistics services and a flight simulator. The contract is part of a fleet renew
program to expand FAU's operational capacity.
“The
relationship between Embraer and the Uruguayan Air Force has been growing and we are particularly pleased to announce this deal in the
year in which we celebrate 50 years of Embraer's first export contract, to Uruguay,” said Bosco da Costa Junior, President and CEO
of Embraer Defense & Security. “We are ready to offer the best multimission aircraft to the FAU as well as our full support
to increase their operational readiness and to enhance their capabilities to accomplish strategic missions such as border surveillance”.
"The acquisition
of the A-29 Super Tucano and the flight simulator will provide Uruguay with airspace defense capabilities and is part of the commitment
assumed by the government to renew the material and equipment of our Armed Forces to fulfill their assigned missions," says Uruguayan
Minister of National Defense, Armando Castaingdebat.
“This
incorporation projects us technologically, and upon completion of the A-29 acquisition process, it allows us to face, together with Embraer,
the new regional security paradigms,” said Commander in Chief of the Uruguayan Air Force, General Luis H. De León.
With Uruguay
and the recent acquisition of the first A-29 in NATO configuration (A-29N) by Portugal, the A-29 Super Tucano reaches 20 operators worldwide,
boasting over 290 orders. The number of air forces operating the A-29 Super Tucano steadily expands due to its unmatched combination of
features, making it the most cost-effective, accessible, and versatile choice.
For Air Forces
seeking a proven, comprehensive, efficient, reliable, and cost-effective solution on a single platform, coupled with great operational
flexibility, the A-29 Super Tucano offers a wide range of missions such as close air support, air patrol, special operations, air interdiction,
JTAC, forward air controller (FAC), air and tactical coordinator (TAC), Armed ISR, border surveillance, reconnaissance, air escort, basic,
operational and advanced training, transition to air superiority fighters, JTAC/LIFT and FAC training.
