That aside, Zilinksiyiyiy expressed interested in buying the Super Tuc, but Ukraine was denied by the Huehues. I'm sure if the transaction happened, we would have had some Russians being BTFO'd by a cropduster.
The following is AI sloppa, but spans too many years for me to track down the sources:
In August 2020, the Ukrainian Air Force clarified that while the Super Tucano was evaluated as a trainer/light fighter aircraft to potentially replace their L-39 Albatros aircraft, it was not being considered as a replacement for their main combat aircraft like MiG-29 and Su-27 fighter jets. They stated that a foreign 4++ generation multi-role aircraft would be considered for that role instead.
Later Developments and Current Status:
In December 2022, Brazilian media reported Ukraine's interest in acquiring the Super Tucano for the Russo-Ukrainian War, but the sale was reportedly blocked by the Bolsonaro administration.
There were reports of a US diplomatic effort to unblock the deal with the incoming Brazilian President, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.
However, in June 2023, the CEO of Embraer's defense arm stated that there were no ongoing discussions with Ukraine regarding the Super Tucano sale.
More recently, in May 2025, Ukraine was mentioned as potentially considering the Super Tucano, alongside the AT-6, to combat drone threats efficiently. This suggests the possibility that interest may have rekindled.
