Over a 250 nmi (460 km) sector, a 74-seat TPNG 70 would burn 5% less fuel than a 70-seat ATR-72 and 13% less than the 80-seat Dash 8-400; while the 90-seat TPNG would save 18% per seat compared with the ATR, and 25% compared with the Dash. [6] Embraer forecasts a market for 2,260 turboprops in the two decades following 2022. [7]
By May 2019, Embraer considered developing a new family of turboprop regional airliners in the 50–70 seat range, complementing the E-Jet E2, so as to free engineering resources. [ 25 ] [ 26 ] It would compete against older ATR and Dash 8 designs for 1.5 to 2 h flights over 500–700 nmi (930–1,300 km). [ 27 ]
The Embraer/FMA CBA 123 Vector (originally EMB 123 for Embraer and IA 70 for FMA) was a 1990 turboprop aircraft designed for regional flights, to carry up to 19 passengers. The program arose from a partnership between the Brazilian company Embraer and the Argentine FMA .
As of July 2024 Embraer has delivered 3034 regional jets, between the ERJ family and the still in production E-Jet/E-Jet E2 [1] [2] The Sud Aviation Caravelle short-haul jet airliner was the first regional jet introduced in 1959 The Yakovlev Yak-40 was introduced in 1968 The Fokker F-28 was introduced in 1969 and was followed by the stretched Fokker 100 in 1988 and its Fokker 70 shrink in 1994.
Embraer, along its subsidiary Atech, are responsible for the integration of systems and sensors of the class, other companies like Akaer are involved in the industrial process, nationalizing components and parts of the structure to reduce costs and foreign dependence. [20] Around 40% of each ship's parts are produced in the country. [21]
The prototype made its first flight on 3 September 1981. In August 1973, Hawker Siddeley launched a new 70-seat regional airliner project, the HS.146, to fill the gap between turboprop-powered airliners such as the Hawker Siddeley HS.748 and the Fokker F27 Friendship and small jet airliners such as the BAC One-Eleven and Boeing 737.
During the late 2000s, Embraer had studied an aircraft of such capacity, dubbed the E-195X, but had discarded the concept in 2010 in light of degraded aircraft performance in the absence of a re-engine. On account of its poor sales and decreasing demand for 70 seat jets, a redesigned counterpart to the E-170 was not pursued. [4]
The Embraer EMB 110 Bandeirante (English: pioneer [2]) is a Brazilian twin-turboprop light transport aircraft designed by Embraer for military and civil use. The EMB 110 was designed by the French engineer Max Holste ; it had been designed in line with specifications issued by the Brazilian Ministry of Aeronautics in 1965. [ 3 ]
