Commercial Aviation backlog alone increased 50% year-on-year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But beyond the quarterly numbers, executives repeatedly referenced future aircraft studies, supplier discussions and long-term technology investments.<\/p>\n\n\n        <div class=\"flex flex-wrap items-center justify-start -mx-2 mt-6\">\n                                    <a href=\"https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/news\/royal-jordanian-embraer-e2-narrowbody-missions\/\"  class=\"btn-ocean  mx-2 my-2  flex items-center flex-row \">\n                                        <span class=\"sr-only\">Also read: How Royal Jordanian\u2019s Embraer E2 \u2018regional jet\u2019 flies narrowbody missions at a fraction of the cost<\/span>\n                    <span>Also read: How Royal Jordanian\u2019s Embraer E2 \u2018regional jet\u2019 flies narrowbody missions at a fraction of the cost<\/span>\n                <\/a>\n                        <\/div>\n        \n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-6-xl-font-size\">Embraer studies aircraft, propulsion and technologies for the future<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Notable in Embraer&#8217;s results was that investments in the quarter totalled $99 million, compared to just $8 million in the same quarter last year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company said the total included:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>$38 million in capital expenditure (capex),<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$36 million in tangible asset additions,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>$14 million invested in its pool programme,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>and $11 million directed toward research activities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Pressed on what the investments included during the Q&amp;A, Felipe Santana Santiago de Lima, Embraer&#8217;s CFO, noted investments directed towards its production in Melbourne, FL, and its MRO centre in Texas.

But its executive aviation segment is an incredibly high performer too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are making studies for a new cycle of products for Embraer,\u201d said Gomes Neto. \u201cEither a commercial jet or a business jet.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He added that Embraer is already engaging with suppliers to better understand future propulsion technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn that regard, we are talking to potential suppliers\u2026 to understand the new technology,\u201d he said. Asked specifically whether the company was talking to <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/news\/rolls-royce-ultrafan-30-narrowbody-aircraft-engine\/\" type=\"post\" id=\"37584\">Rolls-Royce as it takes on CFM and Pratt &amp; Whitney in the narrowbody propulsion race<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, the CEO added, &#8220;We talked to all of them.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"780\" height=\"562\" src=\"https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Rolls-Royce-ultrafan-30-narrowbody-aircraft-engine.jpg\" alt=\"Rolls-Royce ultrafan 30 narrowbody aircraft engine\" class=\"wp-image-37624\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Rolls-Royce-ultrafan-30-narrowbody-aircraft-engine.jpg 780w, https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Rolls-Royce-ultrafan-30-narrowbody-aircraft-engine-300x216.jpg 300w, https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Rolls-Royce-ultrafan-30-narrowbody-aircraft-engine-768x553.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Rolls-Royce<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The timing is notable. Airbus and Boeing remain focused on stabilising existing programmes rather than launching all-new aircraft families, while engine manufacturers are increasingly studying propulsion systems aimed at the next generation of narrowbody aircraft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, airlines are facing renewed pressure around fuel costs, fleet flexibility and route economics, trends that increasingly favour smaller, more efficient aircraft in the 100-150 seat segment.<\/p>\n\n\n        <div class=\"flex flex-wrap items-center justify-start -mx-2 mt-6\">\n                                    <a href=\"https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/news\/embraer-e2-reshaping-narrowbody-market\/\"  class=\"btn-ocean  mx-2 my-2  flex items-center flex-row \">\n                                        <span class=\"sr-only\">Also read: Right plane, right time &#8211; How Embraer is reshaping the narrowbody market<\/span>\n                    <span>Also read: Right plane, right time &#8211; How Embraer is reshaping the narrowbody market<\/span>\n                <\/a>\n                        <\/div>\n        \n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-6-xl-font-size\">Embraer is unshaken by A220 and 737 MAX 7 competition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although any new narrowbody aircraft from Embraer may be some time away, its flagship E195-E2 is facing an increasingly crowded market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AirAsia&#8217;s huge order for the Airbus A220 saw Embraer pitted head-to-head against the Canadian jet, with AirAsia president Tony Fernandes admitting it was a tough choice between the two. But Gomes Neto was pragmatic about the situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s good to see another low-cost carrier in the region recognising the advantages of a small, narrowbody jet,&#8221; he said. &#8220;This is a trend that we expect to continue.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other side, <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/news\/boeing-737-max-10-brake-tests-certification\/\" type=\"post\" id=\"40391\">Boeing is preparing to bring its 737 MAX 7 into service<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, a 140-seat jet that competes much more closely with the E1`95-E2 than any Boeing product ever has. Again, Embraer takes a positive outlook on this development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We might have some competition in some campaigns,&#8221; admitted the CEO, &#8220;but we are very confident that the E2 is the best option for customers to complement larger, narrowbodies.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/737max-gallery-12-737-7.jpeg\" alt=\"Boeing 737-MAX 7\" class=\"wp-image-33932\" srcset=\"https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/737max-gallery-12-737-7.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/737max-gallery-12-737-7-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/737max-gallery-12-737-7-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/aerospaceglobalnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/737max-gallery-12-737-7-640x360.jpeg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Boeing<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The CEO&#8217;s confidence is not misplaced. While the A220-300 generally wins on fuel burn per seat and range, the lighter E195-E2 comes out on top on trip cost, acquisition cost and thinner route economics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Boeing 737 MAX 7 does not slot into this competition well, despite its similar passenger capacity. Although it&#8217;s small, it&#8217;s still designed to run network routes and operate like a narrowbody rather than a regional jet. At a staggering 19 tonnes heavier than the largest E2, the MAX 7 is unlikely to shake Embraer&#8217;s confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the legacy manufacturer&#8217;s smallest jets come up against Brazil&#8217;s biggest, they&#8217;ll find new competition on their hands.<\/p>\n\n\n        <div class=\"flex flex-wrap items-center justify-start -mx-2 mt-6\">\n
