Chile will begin manufacturing airplanes again. In the ENAER workshops they are already working on the design of the new "Pillán", which will have cutting-edge technology and will be exported to other countries.

Under Direct Interadministrative Contracting No. 38-0176-CDI22, the Argentine Navy and the INVAP company agreed to the construction of a naval air and surface surveillance radar, based on active electronic vertical scanning (AESA) technology, to increase and improve the operational capacity of the MEKO class surface units that currently make up the fleet of the Argentine Navy. The development of the pre-series radar will require an investment of U$D 14,345,000 dollars (fourteen million three hundred and forty-five thousand).

This is the airborne POD for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions that would be intended for the IA-58 Fenix but also because the pod is interchangeable it could be used on other aircraft.

The pod will have a set of systems such as an active antenna with AESA or active electronic scanning capability and EO/IR or elect optical and infrared sensors.
The ISR capacity of this pod will make the Puca in its "Fénix" model an aircraft capable of patrolling symmetrical confrontations against radars, communications equipment or anti-aircraft installations.
It will also have a broadband data link to transmit the information obtained in real time to a control center.

And well people, it seems that the phoenix is very well on its way, perhaps from our ignorance it would seem like lax times, it is good to know that every day stages are being overcome and we are getting closer to fully certifying this aircraft and being able to extend these systems to several cells. further.

In civil Aviation Brazil has the 3rd largest civil aviation industry in the world, and in latin america there is a substantial civil aviation Industry.

But In military terms the rank is different, I guess is USA, Europe/Russia, China/India/South korea/Japan

I mean in military terms Asia has a lot of Industry.

Latin america also has not very powerful engines, Brazil has low thrust engines just for missiles and UAVs, Mexico only produces jet engine parts, we do not build a whole engine by our own.

Argentina builds light weigh Helicopters and Colombia small cessna type aircraft

this cute is also Indian
1717404954219.png


and these are also good examples of your abilities India has an importan aerospace Industry

– Firm deal is for 10 E190-E2 and 10 E195-E2 new aircraft
– Deliveries start 2Q25

Mexicana de Aviación, Mexico’s state-owned carrier, has ordered 20 Embraer (NYSE: ERJ; B3: EMBR3) E2 aircraft. The deal is for 10 E190-E2 and 10 E195-E2 jets. Deliveries will begin in 2Q25. Mexicana will configure the E190-E2 with 108 seats, and the E195-E2 with 132 seats – both in a single class layout.


Mexicana will be the first E2 operator in Mexico, benefitting from the E2’s low operating costs and fuel efficiency, highlighting Mexicana and Embraer’s commitment to sustainability, and improving the efficiency of aviation.

With this strategic decision the Mexican state airline will grow and modernize its fleet, strengthening domestic and international connectivity to offer affordable and comfortable air travel, with the highest standards of safety and service.

Priscilla Doro Solymossy, VP Sales and Marketing, Head of Latin America and the Caribbean, Embraer Commercial Aviation, said, “We welcome Mexicana to the E2 family, the first E2 operator in Mexico. Seeing the success and rapid growth Mexicana has achieved since it restarted operations in December 2023 has been remarkable. The airline is already flying to 18 destinations, and has transported more than 115,000 passengers, accumulating more than 3,280 flight hours in this short period, reflecting Mexicana’s commitment to operational excellence and customer service.”

The arrangement of the spray system, ahead of the propeller of this ALS, and the configuration of the aircraft reduce the formation of vortices in the application pattern, while the type and arrangement of the nozzles ensures uniformity of the discharge. This is the Aero Agro AA-100 from Fumicaña Ltda, an aircraft built and designed in Colombia that allows precise fumigations at ultra-low discharge volume.

SAO JOSE DOS CAMPOS, Brazil (Reuters) -Brazilian planemaker Embraer sees itself as a "great solution" for carriers to add capacity more quickly amid constraints to 'big' narrowbody deliveries in the industry, Chief Executive Francisco Gomes Neto said on Tuesday.

The company has seen increased demand for its commercial jets and is actively working on several sales campaigns it hopes to conclude in coming months, Gomes Neto told reporters at an event at the firm's headquarters.


Embraer has production slots available from 2026, meaning it can deliver on new jet sales before larger rivals Boeing and Airbus, the latter having sold out its production of single-aisle jets until the end of the decade.

The Brazilian firm is gearing up for the Farnborough Airshow next month, when planemakers often announce major orders. Gomes Neto said Embraer hopes this year's event will be "the best show ever" for the company.

"We have a positive sales momentum in different business units," the executive said. "Starting with the commercial jets, we have seen increased demand for our E-Jets, either the E175-E1 or the E2 family."

Embraer this month bagged an order for 20 E2 jets from Mexicana de Aviacion, opening a new market for its second-generation jets, following a major order from American Airlines in March for 90 smaller, first generation E175.

Embraer's traditional regional market, where it competes with its E2 family for 90 to 120 passengers, fits just below the Boeing and Airbus's best-selling 150-seat-plus market.

Gomes Neto reiterated that even though Embraer understands it has the capability to make larger aircraft, at this point there are no concrete plans to move in a different direction from its regional niche.

"We are always making studies about opportunities, not only in commercial but in other business unites as well, but at this point of time we don't have concrete plans," the executive said. "We are really focused on selling the products we have."
