Today, Embraer and the Brazilian Air Force (FAB) signed a memorandum of understanding for cooperation in studies and assessment of the capacities necessary for the design and development of an unmanned aerial vehicle of the highest class and of multiple capacities that meets the needs of the various FAB missions.

Doubts:
- Will it have the purpose of protecting the Grippen (as wingman)?
- Will the engine be imported or a development of the TAPP-5000 Turbomachine turbojet?
- Which stealth technologies will be incorporate (countermeasures systems, new shapes/materials/special paints, internal weapon bay)?
