The companies are offering their respective C-212-400 and M-28B Skytruck designs for the $925 million programme, which will be contracted under direct selection by the air force, rather than via public bids.The air force needs to select a light transport to replace its various Bandeirante models from November 2007, including missionised versions configured for search-and-rescue and maritime surveillance tasks. Its current aircraft also conduct personnel transport and photo-mapping duties. Unlike other current procurements, the service is interested in establishing an assembly line to licence-build the new aircraft at its Campo de Marte-based São Paulo Air Maintenance Centre.Brazil outlined a requirement in 2000 to find a domestic replacement for its EMB-110s, for which Embraer – which was reluctant to develop a new aircraft to meet the requirement – proposed buying used EMB-120s and remanufacturing them to EMB-120K military transport standards. However, the air force found this to be operationally unsuitable and opted to purchase secondhand Cessna 208 Caravans as an interim measure.La nota no aporta mucho a la información que ya venímos manejando, que el tema se centra en el C-212-400 versus PZL M-28, se habla de 80 unidades incluyéndose versiones SAR y de patrulla marítima. El programa alcanzaría los 925 millones de dólares y que la FAB acudió a los Emb-120 como medida interina aunque son aeronaves caras de operar por lo cual debió incorporar Cessna Caravan de segunda mano.</blockquote>
