Among other initiatives, the company, in February 2024, inked a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Mahindra Defence Systems to evaluate the opportunity to jointly pursue the Indian Air Force's Medium Transport Aircraft (MTA) programme with the
C-390 Millennium
. C-390 is a new generation multi-mission aircraft.
Embraer President and CEO Francisco Gomes Neto said India is a key market for the company and is excited to deepen its collaboration with the Indian aerospace and defence industry, leveraging expertise and technology to contribute to the nation's growth and Make in India efforts.
Regional carrier Star Air has an all-Embraer fleet, operating E175 and ERJ145 aircraft.
Embraer aircraft that are operated by Indian Forces include the Legacy 600 aircraft used for the transportation of government officials and VIPs by the Indian Air Force (IAF) and Border Security Force (BSF) and the 'Netra' AEW&C aircraft based on the Embraer ERJ145 platform operated by the IAF.

Sipara-Mahuli stretch complete: Minister
Patna: The elevated road being constructed between Sipara and Mahuli has been completed, with the work of ramp over at Bhupatipur, said road construction minister Nitin Nabin during an inspection of the Mithapur-Mahuli road project on Saturday. He said the Rs 1,400 crore project would benefit lakhs of residents in south Patna. The minister said the 9 km stretch from Bhupatipur to Punpun would be inaugurated soon. Once operational, the travel time between Sipara and Mahuli, covering 11 km, would be reduced to just 10 minutes, Nabin said. The minister was accompanied by RCD secretary Sandeep Kumar R Pudakalkatti and other senior officials from the Bihar State Road Development Corporation Limited, including CGM Bablu Kumar and project DGM Prem Shankar. "The project is being executed in two phases. Phase-I, covering the Sipara to Ram Gobind Singh Mahuli road, is complete. Phase-II includes additional provisions for a 2.10 km elevated four-lane road from Mithpur to Sipara and a 2.20 km four-lane road from Mahuli to Punpun," Nabin said. This infrastructure development is part of a larger four-lane closed circuit corridor connecting Patna to Gaya, Biharsharif and Bakhtiyarpur via NH-83, NH-82, NH-31, and NH-30. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pierce Brosnan's Wife Lost 120 Pounds - This Is Her Now Patna: The elevated road constructed between Sipara and Mahuli has been completed, with the work of ramp over at Bhupatipur, said road construction minister Nitin Nabin during an inspection of the Mithapur-Mahuli road project on Saturday.

QuBeats wins Defence Ministry's iDEX ADITI 2.0 grant of Rs 25 crore to build Quantum Navigation Systems for Indian Navy
New Delhi [India], June 7 (ANI): Indian quantum deeptech startup QuBeats has won the prestigious ADITI 2.0 Defence Challenge to develop an indigenous Quantum Positioning System (QPS) for the Indian Navy. The award, which comes with a grant of Rs 25 crore (USD 3 million), will enable QuBeats to build next-generation high-precision quantum sensors that promise accurate navigation in GPS-denied or spoofed environments - a critical capability for modern military operations. QuBeats said in a release that it is disrupting conventional paradigms with its innovative quantum magnetometer technology in an era heavily dependent on satellite-based navigation like GPS. 'These high-precision sensors detect the Earth's unique magnetic anomaly signatures, enabling navigation that is entirely independent of GPS systems--reliable by day or night, in any condition. This groundbreaking capability offers transformative benefits across both military and civilian domains, addressing a potential market of USD 10 billion. The startup is currently raising a seed round to accelerate its product research roadmap,' the release said. 'As one of the few quantum sensing companies of its kind in India, QuBeats is redefining the country's strategic technological edge,' it said. The release said the company has been founded by a stellar team of physicists, engineers, and defence technologists and is building a suite of quantum products that include Quantum Magnetometers, Quantum Gyroscopes, Miniature Atomic Clocks, Rydberg Radars, and highly sensitive target detection sensors for critical and strategic use cases. 'Winning the ADITI 2.0 Challenge is not just a validation of our unique technology approach, but a clarion call to India's quantum aspirations. QuBeats is here to build the future--and build it from India,' said the founders in a joint statement. The release said QuBeats is uniquely positioned with a first-mover advantage in India in an age where navigation sovereignty and sensor dominance define military superiority,. With foundational IP in quantum sensing, a strong R&D pipeline, and a global outlook, QuBeats aims to productize quantum sensing solutions for defence, aerospace, energy, and critical infrastructure. The founding team includes Mallikarjun Karra - a PhD candidate at Max Planck Society, Madhu Talluri -postdoc from Lawrence Berkeley Lab, Shouvik Mukherjee - a finishing postdoc at Joint Quantum Institute at Univ of Maryland, US and Rajat Sethi - a graduate of MIT, Harvard and IIT Kharagpur. The release said China and the United States are investing billions in quantum navigation and sensing. China's PLA has integrated quantum magnetometers for stealth submarine detection, while the US is advancing chip-scale quantum clocks and gravity sensors for battlefield resilience. It said QuBeats provides India a vital response to these developments. 'By creating indigenous, battle-ready, and globally competitive quantum systems, QuBeats is India's answer to strategic parity in quantum warfare,' the release said. QuBeats said it proud to lead India's charge 'with vision, innovation, and the indomitable spirit of first principles' as quantum becomes the new high ground in defence and aerospace. (ANI)
