SAO PAULO, Brazil (Bloomberg): Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica SA may win an order worth as much as $81 million from the Dominican Republic for nine training and light combat aircraft, O Estado de S. Paulo newspaper has reported.
The aircraft, known as SuperTucano, will be used to patrol the country's borders to help fight drug trafficking, Estado said, citing Leonel Fernandez, president of the Dominican Republic.
Fernandez announced the plan during his address to a defence committee at the country's national assembly, Estado said.
