Company will present its services and products portfolio in Rio de Janeiro, April 14-17
São José dos Campos, April 9, 2009 – Embraer will participate in the seventh edition of Latin
America Aero and Defence (LAAD – www.laadexpo.com). This aeronautics and defense trade
show takes place April 14 to 17, at RioCentro, in the city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. During the
event, the Company will promote its entire line of products and services at stand G-49.
“LAAD is an aeronautical trade show that has gained increasing importance for both
Embraer and for our customers,” said Orlando José Ferreira Neto, Embraer Executive Vice
President, Defense and Government Market, who is participating in an aeronautical and
defense event for the first time, since taking this position last January. “It is an opportunity to
build even closer relationships with the Brazilian Ministry of Defense and the country’s
armed forces, as well as many customers, especially those from Latin America. The latest
contracts for the Super Tucano – with Chile, the Dominican Republic, and Ecuador – have
shown the strategic importance of the region to the Company.”
At the stand, Embraer will present to invited guests and customers a concept demonstrator
of the Command and Control (C2) system and Modeling and Simulation (M&S). The
Company has increasingly invested in its capability, with an eye to the demanding
Command, Control, Communications, Computer, Intelligence, Surveillance and
Reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems market. In this context, Embraer has developed the
C4ISR solution and supplied surveillance aircraft to the Department of National
Defense (Secretaría de Defensa Nacional – SEDENA) of Mexico, which has successfully
operated this system, since 2004.
