Embraer has announced the opening of a new office in Lisbon, Portugal, dedicated to its defense and security operations in Europe. Named “Embraer Defense Europe,” this strategic expansion aligns with Embraer’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge solutions to NATO and European Union (EU) member states while strengthening its footprint in the region.
Embraer Defense Europe will meet all necessary NATO and EU requirements. It will serve as the spearhead of Embraer’s defense initiatives in Europe, with a dedicated team of highly qualified professionals specialized in program management, support, and engineering, to provide state-of-the-art solutions tailored to the needs of 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.”
Several European countries already have Embraer’s support to modernize their operational capabilities with the C-390 Millennium multi-mission aircraft and the A-29N Super Tucano advanced training and light attack aircraft, including Portugal, Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary and Holland. The most recent countries to choose Embraer’s modern defense solutions are Sweden and Slovakia, which will join the C-390 Millennium program.
