Year to date through November, authorizations had been issued for exports of products and services totaling USD 3.1 billion, up 74% compared to 2024 and more than double the amount in 2023. The data was released by Brazil\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.br\/defesa\/pt-br\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ministry of Defense<\/a> on Monday (1).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the ministry\u2019s statement, Germany, Bulgaria, the UAE, the United States, and Portugal were the main importers this year. The defense industry includes products such as aircraft, vessels, armored vehicles, weapons, ammunition, radars, and cybersecurity technology. The ministry reports that there are 80 exporting companies in the sector, with clients in 140 countries. This segment, the ministry adds, accounts for approximately 3.49% of Brazil\u2019s gross domestic product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The UAE is not only an importer of defense products but also investors in Brazilian companies. Through Edge Group, they control SIATT, which develops integrated security systems, and Condor, a manufacturer of non-lethal equipment and technologies. Headquartered in Abu Dhabi, Edge Group also establishes partnerships with state governments and public agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Read more<\/em>:<br><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/brazil-navy-edge-group-advance-anti-drone-project\/\">Brazil Navy, Edge Group advance anti-drone project<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Translated by Guilherme Miranda<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-387235\">Supplied\/Embraer<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Data from Brazil\u2019s Ministry of Defense show that total exports in the sector reached a record this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2316,"featured_media":387235,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[91],"tags":[50413,50414,9561,55202,50835,9579],"class_list":{"0":"post-400238","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-economy","8":"tag-condor-2","9":"tag-edge-group-2","10":"tag-exports-en","11":"tag-ministry-of-defense","12":"tag-siatt-2","13":"tag-uae-en"},"wps_subtitle":"Data from Brazil\u2019s Ministry of Defense show that total exports in the sector reached a record this year.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/400238","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2316"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=400238"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/400238\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/387235"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=400238"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=400238"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=400238"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
