ISR Overview • EMB 145 AEW&C • EMB 145 RS/AGS • P-99 •

Embraer´s state-of-the-art family of Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) aircraft delivers the best solution on the market for meeting mission needs:

•	Lowest total cost for complete mission compliance

•	Worldwide logistic support (more than 900 aircraft in operation)

•	Latest in systems technology

•	Mission flexibility without major re-investment in development

•	Upgradeable options for future mission evolutions

•	Quick reaction time

•	Low noise operation

•	The best option for most Special Mission aircraft/systems needs

From successful commercial aircraft to cost-effective defense systems, the transformation of the ERJ 145 platform into a military aircraft equipped with sensors capable of detecting and interpreting "targets" (aircraft, missiles, boats, vehicles, ground facilities, all types of electromagnetic radiation and natural resources) required sizable investments and sophisticated technology, much of which affected the basic aircraft itself. This is where Embraer's technology and expertise come into play.

The perfect combination of modern equipment, advanced technology and low downtime, together with a high degree of readiness — the direct result of a platform intended for the competitive regional market — has improved operating economics through a reduction in inspection frequencies and ground times, enabling these aircraft to fly over 3,000 FH annually.

It's a simple formula: intelligence, plus surveillance, plus reconnaissance equals situational awareness. Integrating it on one platform is fundamental to mission success.

Affordable, reliable, efficient and innovative — the EMB 145 is designed specifically for the demanding intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance mission requirements in today's information warfare environment.

The aircraft are capable of receiving and transmitting data through their embedded, state-of-the-art wide band on-board data-link systems. Sensor images, including target data, are readily received from or relayed to command and control stations on the ground or in the air or to other aircraft in the operational theater.

The system precision, effectiveness, and flexibility of these aircraft far exceed normal requirements, ensuring operational capabilities and accuracy during their entire service life.

Their cost-effectiveness, affordability and readiness to assume operational supremacy make them the ideal choice for armed forces throughout the world.
