Embraer Short Take Off Utility Transport

The Short Take Off Utility Transport is a light military transport aircraft concept proposed by Embraer.

Development

In December 2019, Embraer and the Brazilian Air Force tackled the development of a light military transport aircraft.
Renderings of a proposed hybrid electric aircraft with STOL capabilities were shown in November 2020.
The Short Take Off Utility Transport would replace its 64 EMB-110 Bandeirante and 19 EMB-120 Brasilia with similar dimensions.
Powered by two turboprops also generating power for electric-driven propellers on wingtips, it would serve remote, unpaved 1,200 m runways and have a 1,310 nm range.
It could carry ULD pallets for a maximum payload of loaded with a rear cargo ramp, or 24 paratroopers or 30 soldiers; or serve as an air ambulance.
It would have a T-tail and a fuselage comparable to the 65-ft. 7-in. long EMB 120 but wider.
Only concept studies are funded, a development program could follow after 2027 and commercial applications could include island hopping.
