Embraer closed 2025 with 155 Executive Aviation deliveries, reaching the top of its guidance and delivering 72 Phenom 300 series aircraft
Melbourne, Florida – February 18, 2026 – Embraer (NYSE: EMBJ / B3: EMBJ3) today announced that its Phenom 300 series maintains its position as the world’s best-selling light jet for the 14th consecutive year, according to data released by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association (GAMA) during its State of the Industry press conference in Washington, D.C. The data also confirmed the light jet as the most delivered twin-engine jet for the sixth year in a row.
In 2025, Embraer delivered 72 Phenom 300 series aircraft, marking the highest annual total of this decade. With more than 900 aircraft in service worldwide, operating in 70 countries and accumulating over 2.9 million flight hours, the Phenom 300 series once again sets the benchmark for performance, technology, and comfort in the light jet segment.
“The Phenom 300E continues to dominate the light jet category because it delivers what customers value most: unmatched performance, advanced technology, and an exceptional ownership experience,” said Michael Amalfitano, President & CEO of Embraer Executive Jets. “Year after year, the Phenom 300E remains the benchmark in its class—reinforcing its leadership position and the trust our customers place in our brand. We are proud to celebrate yet another milestone in the ongoing success of the world’s most desired light jet.”
The Phenom 300E is the fastest light jet in production, capable of a maximum speed of Mach 0.80 and a five‑occupant range of 2,010 nautical miles (3,724 km) with NBAA IFR reserves. The aircraft’s advanced avionics suite includes the Runway Overrun Awareness and Alerting System (ROAAS)—the first system of its kind to be developed and certified in business aviation—as well as autothrottle, Synthetic Vision System, Emergency Descent Mode, and other features. The Phenom 300E also incorporates technology typically found in larger jets, such as single‑point refueling, an externally serviced lavatory, and an airstair.
Beyond the light jet segment, Embraer’s Praetor family also performed strongly in 2025, with 69 aircraft delivered during the year. This momentum helped drive Executive Aviation to 155 total deliveries, setting a new record for the business unit, and marked a major program milestone as the Praetor fleet surpassed 400 aircraft delivered worldwide.
The Phenom 300E is the best-selling light jet for the past 14 consecutive years, popularized for its best-in-class capabilities. It is the fastest light jet in production, with a high-speed cruise of 464 knots and a five-occupant range of 2,010 nautical miles (3,724 km) with NBAA IFR reserves. The aircraft is capable of flying at 45,000 feet (13,716 meters), powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW535E1 engines with 3,478 pounds of thrust each. With its class’s best climb and impressive field performance, the Phenom 300E costs less to operate and maintain than its peers.
The pilot-friendly cockpit enables single-pilot operation, reduces pilot workload, and offers advanced technology through the Prodigy Touch Flight Deck, based on the acclaimed Garmin 3000 avionics suite. It is the only to offer Embraer’s Runway Overrun and Awareness and Alerting System (ROAAS), and also features auto-throttle, Synthetic Vision System, Emergency Descent Mode, and more. The aircraft brings technology from the class above including single-point refueling, an externally serviced lavatory, and airstair.
Additionally, the Phenom 300E offers a spacious cabin designed for utmost utility and elegance thanks to Embraer’s DNA Design. In addition to having one of the largest baggage compartments in its category, the light jet also delivers an abundance of natural light in the cabin and lavatory through the largest windows in class. The comfort of the seats, with reclining and full movement capability, is enhanced by the best pressurization among light jets (6,600 ft. maximum cabin altitude). The cabin environment is optimized to distinguish temperature zones for pilots and passengers, provide a refreshment center, voice and data communications options, and an entertainment system.
