The Ministry of Defence of Angola is negotiating with the Brazilian aircraft manufacturer Embraer to acquire six reconnaissance planes and patrol Super Tucano to enhance the Air Force fleet, according to the New Journal.

The newspaper quoted military sources to say that the deal is practically closed and will cost around 62 million dollars, an amount that may be added a few more million to provide equipment of military equipment.

Em Maio de 2005, durante uma visita a Brasília, o Presidente José Eduardo dos Santos acordou com o seu congénere brasileiro Lula da Silva a concessão de uma linha de crédito de 580 milhões de dólares para financiar compras angolanas de equipamento diverso, nomeadamente aviões para fins comerciais, executivos e militares fabricados pela Embraer.
Angola committed itself, on occasion, to settle the bill by providing 20 billion barrels of oil per day.
O Super Tucano é um avião a turbo-hélice produzido pela Embraer, há mais de 20 anos, e tem como principal missão operações de reconhecimento e patrulha, sendo a tripulação formada por dois pilotos e podendo transportar 1500 quilogramas de equipamento militar.
A ser concretizado o negócio, adianta o New Journal, Embraer strengthens their presence in Angola, where he has placed his model Embraer 128 (sic), 30 seats, which includes the fleets of small companies operating in the domestic market.
