The new office in Lisbon will operate under Embraer’s Portuguese subsidiary and comply with all NATO and EU requirements. It will act as the centre of Embraer’s defence operations in Europe, staffed by a team of specialists in program management, support, and engineering, ensuring advanced solutions for European armed forces and NATO partners.
“The subsidiary in Portugal is proof of Embraer’s long-term vision for Europe,” said Bosco da Costa Junior, President & CEO of Embraer Defense & Security. “We are committed to deepening our relationships with European and NATO partners, offering the most advanced and efficient capabilities to meet each customer’s operational needs.”
Embraer’s European footprint is already significant, with countries like Portugal, Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary, and the Netherlands relying on its advanced aircraft, such as the C-390 Millennium multi-mission aircraft and A-29N Super Tucano advanced trainer and light attack aircraft. Recent additions to its client base include Sweden and Slovakia, which have joined the C-390 Millennium program.
By establishing Embraer Defense Europe, the company aims to further strengthen ties with European allies, contributing innovative defence solutions and solidifying its position as a trusted partner in the region.
