Brazil uses Embraer for jets patrol, Canada use Boeing scrap

Embraer Defense and Security has delivered the fifth modernized EMB 145 AEW&C aircraft to the Brazilian Air Force (FAB). The FAB has designated it as E-99M and it is the first delivered in FOC (full operational capability) configuration with fully certified systems.

The E-99M aircraft performs airborne early warning and control and flight warning as well as airborne intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions .

Highly trained human resources ensure that the E-99M AEW&C is the most modern of its type in use in South America. Signature: Embraer

According to the president and executive director of Embraer Defense & Security, Bosque da Costa Jnior: “The delivery of the fifth E-99 in FOC configuration – Full Operational Capability – with systems fully certified for use by the Brazilian Air Force in the protection of Brazil and its national sovereignty, is a very important milestone.”

“The four previously delivered aircraft will be upgraded to the FOC version so that they can fully perform all the missions for which they were designed,” he added.

Developed on the platform of the successful ERJ 145 regional aircraft , the FAB's E-99M is capable of detecting, tracking and identifying targets in its coverage area and transmitting this information via Data Link.

The aircraft carries out airspace surveillance, interception control and management, electronic intelligence and border surveillance missions.

The Erieye AESA radar has also been modernized to a similar standard to the new Global Eye. Signature: Embraer

With the modernization, the E-99M aircraft now has radar. Updated Erieye and Command and Control (C2) systems elevating the modernized sensor suite to the status of “the most efficient and up-to-date configuration active in South America.”

The modernized fifth Guardian has new Electronic Warfare (Non-Communication – NCOM) systems, a new software-defined IFF 7-radio V/UHF transponder, a new Mission Audio system powered by VoIP and a new Mission Audio and Data recorder, as well as the Data Link function adapted to the new architecture.

The interior of the aircraft was also updated to increase crew comfort and expand operational capability, with five consoles redesigned and optimized for better use of the modernized systems.

The E-99M project is led by the Combat Aircraft Program Coordinating Committee (Copac) together with Embraer and international suppliers such as SAAB, Aeroelectrnica Internacional (AELI) and Rohde & Schwarz.

Atech, a company of the Embraer group, participates in the project by developing part of the command and control system and supplying six mission planning and analysis stations that will be used for the training and improvement of the crews.

Fundamental role of Albatross Engenharia
