Beginning in the late 1960s, the company produced a two-seat trainer aircraft for the Brazilian Air Force, the Aerotec A.122 Uirapuru.[1][2] Thirty units were produced for the civilian market.[3] The Uirapuru was also exported to Bolivia and Paraguay.[4]
Thereafter, Aerotec produced mainly components for Embraer until 1980. At that time, the Brazilian Air Force showed interest in a performance-enhanced version of the Uirapuru. A prototype with an improved cockpit canopy and enlarged tail unit was built as the A.132 Uirapuru II.[1] Since the Brazilian Air Force did not order this aircraft, only a few examples were produced for Bolivia.[5]
