Brazil, Portugal, and Hungary Have Already Ordered the C-390 Aircraft from Embraer

The C-390 Program Faces a Significant Setback with the Announcement That the Brazilian Air Force Will Reduce Its Order of 28 Aircraft Due to Budget Constraints. Additionally, the FAB Stated That It Will Need to Extend the Delivery Schedule.

However, the Brazilian Government Has Yet to Reveal How Many Planes Will Remain under Contract, but It Is Speculated That the Order May Be Cut by About Half.

Besides Brazil, Only Portugal (5 Aircraft) and Hungary (2 Aircraft) Have Ordered the C-390 So Far.

With billions in loans, China is rebuilding Nigeria’s railway network from scratch, abandoning the British colonial tracks that have turned to scrap and creating a corridor of over 1,300 km to take the load off the roads of Africa’s largest economy.

Forget petroleum-based asphalt: a Scottish company transforms 684,000 plastic bottles into one kilometer of road that is 60% more resistant and up to 10 times more durable, and the technology has already started replacing traditional asphalt in more than 30 countries.

China is building an artificial island in the middle of the sea, covering 20 km², to construct the largest offshore airport in the world, the Dalian Jinzhouwan. This $4.3 billion project is anchored on more than 3,000 pillars embedded in the rock beneath the ocean and is scheduled to open in 2035.

Austrian engineers have developed an inflatable concrete technology that transforms flat slabs into domes using only air pressure, eliminating scaffolding and temporary forms, and potentially changing the way bridges, tunnels, and curved roofs are constructed worldwide.

A robot named Walter does the work of five bricklayers per hour and can save the construction industry, where the average age of professionals is 46 years and almost no one wants to learn the trade anymore, in the United Kingdom.

Spain installs two giant pipelines 2.2 km off the coast to draw water from the Mediterranean and supply a megafacility capable of producing 200 million liters of drinking water per day.

Without wheels, iron, or machines, teams of up to 32 men would have dragged 2.3-ton blocks over wet sand up a ramp embedded in the pyramid itself, raising the structure in 20 to 27 years, according to a new computer model that reignites a millennia-old debate.

The largest car carrier ship in the world will unload 7,200 BYD cars at the SC Port in June, but before that, an Italian ship will arrive this Tuesday with another 4,500 vehicles, totaling 11,700 cars, 150 workers, and a 24-hour non-stop operation at the Port of Itajaí.

African country launched a $145 million project to rehabilitate 35 dams and drill deep wells seeking water stored for millennia beneath the desert, a plan that Captain Ibrahim Traoré’s government presents as a path to the country’s water sovereignty.

A 400-meter colossus powered by natural gas has just set sail from Shanghai to Europe, carrying over 24,000 containers. It is the world’s largest dual-fuel container ship and can cross the planet without refueling even once.

The largest highway concession company in Brazil already belongs to an Italian group, and now the railway sector may be next to receive billions in investments from Italy amid the progress of the Mercosur and European Union agreement.

A new study overturns the central idea we learned about planets and suggests that Earth is the exception rather than the rule; most rocky worlds in the galaxy may not have a core or mantle, just a single turbulent fluid extending to the center.

An eight-story railway colossus with a 16,500-ton roof, Chongqing East Station was built in 38 months with the help of robots and has become one of the largest passenger terminals in the world, with 15 platforms and 29 tracks.

More than 20 billion dollars and 600 km of railway were built in record time in Africa to extract the hidden iron ore from Simandou from the forest, now the first ships are arriving in China and the IMF predicts a 25% jump in Guinea’s GDP.

A new plastic tile that perfectly mimics traditional clay ones is gaining popularity on Brazilian roofs, being lighter, quicker to install, and capable of reducing both construction time and the weight on the house structure all at once.

China raises an alert in the military industry by producing parts for the J-20 fighter jet in a nearly human-free factory, where AI, robots, and autonomous vehicles cut more than 80% of manual labor and double efficiency.
