===Acquisition of Aerotec===
[[Aerotec S/A Indústria Aeronáutica]] was a design and manufacturing company founded in [[São José dos Campos]] in 1962 under the auspices of the [[Department of Aerospace Science and Technology|Brazilian General Command for Aerospace Technology]].  Beginning in the late 1960s, the firm manufactured a two-seat trainer for the Brazilian Air Force, the [[Aerotec A-122 Uirapuru|Aerotec Uirapuru]]. A small number were also built for the civilian market, and others were exported to other Latin American countries.{{citation needed |date= April 2020}}

By 1980, Aerotec's main business was producing components for Embraer. However, around this time, the [[Brazilian Air Force]] became interested in an upgraded version of the Uirapuru. A prototype, designated [[Aerotec A-132 Tangará|Uirapuru II]], was built; but, by the time it flew, the Air Force no longer required it. A small number were built for export. In 1987, the firm was sold to Embraer.
