The Brazilian aircraft manufacturer Embraer was able to deliver a total of 130 aircraft to customers in the previous year. In 2019, the group was able to hand over 198 machines. That means Embraer shipped 35 percent less.

The majority of the aircraft handed over are business jets with 86 units. In the commercial passenger sector, 44 aircraft were delivered to customers. As of December 31, 2020, Embraer had firm orders for 130 commercial aircraft in the pipeline. The order was valued at $ 14,4 billion.

In the previous year, the desired cooperation with the US competitor Boeing failed. This should take over the majority of the civil program for a high price. The military products would have remained with the Brazilians. Boeing get out of the project.

It can be assumed that the Americans have withdrawn due to the high costs that arose in connection with the 737-Max, but also because of the corona crisis. Embraer is looking for a new partner, but is continuing on a stand-alone basis.
