Embraer, the Empresa Brasileira de Aeronáutica S.A., is a Brazilian aerospace conglomerate. The company produces commercial, military, and corporate aircraft, as well as providing related aerospace services. From 1999 to 2001 it was Brazil's largest exporter and is one of the three main exporters in Brazil. Among all aircraft manufacturers, it currently has the third largest yearly delivery of commercial aircraft (behind Boeing and Airbus) and the fourth largest workforce (behind Boeing, Airbus and Bombardier).
The company's headquarters, main production facilities, and engineering/design offices are in São José dos Campos, São Paulo. Embraer also has a production plant and flight testing facility in Gavião Peixoto, São Paulo state. This facility includes a 16,400-foot (5,000 m) runway, the third-longest in the world.Embraer has maintenance and commercial sites in the USA and commercial offices in France, Singapore and China.As of December 31, 2007, Embraer had a workforce of 23,770 people, and a firm order backlog totalling US$18.8 billion.
After the results obtained from the corporate version of their ERJ 135 aircraft, the Embraer Legacy 600, Embraer expanded its product line to smaller business jets as well. On May 3, 2005, the company announced two plans to introduce two new aircraft models, dubbed Phenom 100 and 300, in the "Very Light" and "Light" jet segments. Later, on May 2, 2006, Embraer announced plans to produce an executive version of its E-190 jet, called Lineage 1000, with first deliveries in mid-2008.On October 1, 2007, two other concepts for business jets were announced, the MSJ and MLJ, which would target the "Mid-size" and "Mid-light" segments, respectively.On April 19, 2007, Embraer announced it was considering the production of twin-engine, jet-powered military transport, the Embraer C-390. Using many of the technologies developed for the Embraer 190, it would carry up to 19 tons (41,888 pounds) of cargo and is aimed at replacing older, Cold War-era cargo aircraft. By comparison, the Lockheed C-130 Hercules carries between 19.7 tons (43,550 pounds) and 21.2 tons (46,812 pounds.the project is still under consideration, and is dependent on customer interest. The Brazilian postal service, the Correios, has demonstrated interest in buying at least 5 and eventually 20 to 25 of the aircraft, in lieu of using commercial freight service for mail transport.
Both Embraer and its main competitor, Bombardier, were engaged in a subsidy dispute in the late 90s and early 2000s. It was found by the World Trade Organization (WTO), in a 2000 ruling, that Embraer has received illegal subsidies from the Government of Brazil. In its ruling, the WTO ordered Brazil to eliminate its Proex export subsidies program, which was found to aid Embraer.In October 19 2001, the WTO ruled against Canada, just as it had ruled against Embraer, over low interest loans from the Canadian government designed to aid Bombardier in gaining market share
