    I’m an engineer from Brazil who had the opportunity to watch a lecture given by Ozires Silva, founder of Embraer, while I was in the university. Still to this day, some of my classmates work for Embraer.
    Thank you for this incredible video! Despite all the issues and struggles that Brazilian people face in their lives, stories of success like this of the Super Tucano makes us think about “ok, we have something made here that’s coveted by the whole world and we can be proud of”.

    @rafaelrp07 หลายเดือนก่อน +64

    I'm Brazilian. The Super Tucano was developed as the first step in the evolution of Brazilian military aviation. Since the beginning of the 21st century, Brazil has embarked on several programs to modernize its armed forces: the purchase of Gripen E/F fighters, the development of a domestically manufactured rifle (IA2), the modernization of Astros missile batteries, a nuclear submarine, etc.
    The Super Tucano was a convergence of requirements. Brazil is a peaceful country that doesn't get involved in traditional conflicts, but has difficulty fighting parastatal enemies in the Amazon region. It is an aircraft with a low stall speed, could take off and land in unpaved runaways, has the ability to hit targets at a good distance, act in active and passive surveillance, if necessary, and Brazil needed an aircraft that would be a transition or training for pilots to operate in jet fighters. The ST should be able to act jointly with other air force fighters and have a datalink to coordinate with military personnel on the ground or in the air, and be able to take part in passive and active surveillance in real missions if the Amazon is invaded by another country. This explains the avionics technology and the high capacity to stay in the air for hours. Most interventions against drug-trafficking planes take 1 hour...1.5 hours to intercept due to the size of the Amazon rainforest

      As razões de Portugal não são claramente divulgadas, mas é uma aeronave desenhada especificamente para patrulha de fronteiras muito grandes como são as brasileiras, o que não é o caso das fronteiras continentais de Portugal, porém a capacidade de longos vôos e resiliência ao clima de floresta úmida, tempestades e umidade, o faz adequado para patrulha marítima contra pequenas embarcações, como as de pesca ilegal, também o fato de ter sido projetado para interceptar vôos de baixa altitude e baixa velocidade, e aí está a grande diferença dos jatos, o torna capaz de acompanhar o vôo lado a lado a uma pequena aeronave como um Piper, interpelar as intenções e se for o caso exigir o acompanhamento de vôo a um aeroporto para fiscalização, operação típica de combate ao tráfico. Um jato poderia derrubá-lo sim, mas não é essa a primeira função da patrulha, e entraria em stol se tentasse voar ao lado de uma pequena aeronave como essa para abordagem.
      Por último, já demonstrou claramente a sua utilidade como aeronave de combate ao solo em guerra com insurgentes e guerrilhas, os jatos desenvolvidos para ataque ao solo foram projetados para destruir grandes colunas de blindados, não uma dúzia de obstinados dentro de uma trincheira, até fazem isso, mas a um custo 10x maior e uma autonomia de vôo bem menor.

    For those of you wondering on the difference between the Super Tucano and the American Sky Warden...The A-29 Super Tucano is more combat-focused, with capabilities for close air support, and is well-suited for rapid-response attack missions in low-intensity conflict zones. L3 Harris' Sky Warden excels in ISR, with advanced sensor systems and long endurance, making it better/ideal for surveillance (8-10 hours vs. 6.5) and precision-targeting roles. Both serve their unique niches well, and the choice between them would depend on mission requirements, with the A-29 favored for attack missions and the Sky Warden for intelligence and surveillance-focused operations.

      @ I definitely thought the same thing. It’s the ISR equipment on the Sky Warden. The Wescam MX-20 optical camera by itself costs $1.1M. I only know this because a couple of years ago I was playing around with idea of how much it would cost to take a F150, put 20 loitering munition launchers in the back in a palletized configuration and then attach a tethered drone for ISR and targeting. More than half the cost for the entire build was the Wescam. At those prices, I think there’s a market for someone who wants to compete in ISR cameras. A year ago I found out that Israel must’ve had the exact same idea because I saw my idea on one of their webpages.

    That entire clip barely mentioned the number one feature where the Super Tucano beats modern jet fighters: cost. You can buy a dozen of them for the equivalent of one jet fighter. People keep forgetting how expensive jet fighters are. They cost several thousand dollars an hour on fuel, and that's just scratching the surface, not to mention maintenance. Jet fighters are great against other jet fighters and modern naval fleets. But on anything else, such as terrorists, they're overkill. Another thing they can be good for is testing pilots in combat. The pilots who do the best can then be promoted to fly fighter jets.

    Nice video! But the biggest advantage of the plane is, it is also really cheap to maintain and operate. The cost per hour is very small and it could do most of patrol and support missions other more fancy planes would spend the triple to do.

    It's interesting, to me, that the Super Tucano is pretty much the same size and weight as the P-51 Mustang with similar flight performance.
    From what I can see. the only thing missing on the aircraft is any capacity for aireal refueling though that may be deliberate.
    In my opinion this is the aircraft the US should have bought instead of the OA-1K Sky Warden, which is based on a crop duster.

      @@existanimal0 It seems that the SkyWarden has a longer range and is better equipped for surveillance. Meanwhile, the Super Tucano is more combat-ready and has fewer electronic features. Although the SkyWarden can perform the Super Tucano's tasks with somewhat lower effectiveness, it appears to be more versatile. However, repurposing the Super Tucano for surveillance is more challenging.

      Num seria viralatismo se ele falasse mal do Brasil?
      Assim, na boa. Eu não entendi. Sei que é super chato ter que explicar uma piada mas se puder dar uma dica.
      O que é que tá pegando? É que ele está feliz com o sucesso de algo brasileiro? Isso é o contrário de viralatismo não?
      Ou é porque é o sucesso de um máquina que no fim serve para matar pessoas, o que é sempre uma bad vibe e aí eu acho plausível alguém ficar realmente incomodado. Eu mesmo fico. Mas também acho bacana, saca? Fico meio divido.
      Esse lance da dualidade é meio complicado. Por exemplo, eu fiz um voto de nunca trabalhar para qualquer empresa da indústria bélica, direta ou indiretamente.
      Mas e se a Embraer oferecer uma boa oportunidade?
      Poxa, tem tanta coisa bonita que a Embraer fabrica. Mas tem também as armas. E a rigor, até as coisas bonitas podem ser usadas para matar pessoas. Vai ver esse lance de radicalizar e fechar questão sobre indústria armamentista pode ser algo de fato questionável. Num sei.

      @ Absolutely. I agree they are likely functional/effective in a variety of situations. I just don’t think it’s very easy to fill the niche that any helicopter does. Except when a newer helicopter comes along. Even still, the role helicopters will play in future conflicts will look very different I believe. I believe helicopters may become mobile fleet commanders for drone operations. It could be done in any number of capacities or forms, but drones seem to be a very important development for now
