History

Embraer

In October 2001 Embraer opened a plant on the Aerodrome of Gavião Peixoto, near Araraquara, to house the final assembly of aircraft and to test equipment and technology. For this purpose, Embraer built runway 02/20 with 4,967 x 45 m, considered to be the longest public use runway in the Americas and the fifth longest in the world. Even so, only 2,975 m are actually used - the rest is taken up by a displaced threshold. Embraer offers customer support for its clientele on the site.

The plant manufactures the wings of the Embraer 190 and 195, the Embraer EMB 314 Super Tucano and Embraer KC-390 aircraft, the refurbishing of the Northrop F-5 of the Brazilian Air Force, and since 2008 the final assembly of Phenom 100 and Phenom 300 aircraft.[1]

Saab

On May 9, 2023, Saab opened an assembly line for the Saab Gripen E at Unidade Gavião Peixoto Airport.[2] It is the first Gripen assembly line outside of Sweden and will produce at least 15 of the Brazilian Air Force's order of 36 aircraft. It is intended that the first aircraft produced on this production line will be delivered in 2025.[3]
