The EC725 helicopters for the Brazilian Navy evaluated with Exocet missiles and radar AN / APS-143V
(defensa.com) Helicopters Helicopters EC725 Caracal Airbus selected by the Brazilian Navy are testing systems integration. First are integrated AM39 Exocet antiship missiles MBDA, in which we reported in June and is now performing this task by the naval radar AN / APS-143V Company Telephonics, installed under the cockpit of the helicopter. For this, a team of technicians from Airbus Helicopters and Helibras, the Brazilian subsidiary of the European group, are conducting test flights of these helicopters since April in France.
Of the 16 helicopters ordered by the Brazilian Navy eight will be configured to carry missiles and naval radar, within the framework of "HX BR" program that provides for the purchase of 50 of these helicopters from the Brazilian Ministry of Defence with which to equip the three branches of the Armed Forces. In this program the Brazilian industry, in fact the end of April the integration contract antiship missiles by the Brazilian company participates Avibras was signed.
Once the test campaign in France is finished, the process of certification of this configuration will be held in Brazil next by Helibras year, which used a prototype that later become the first helicopter received the Brazilian Navy, with the name UH-15A. The EC725 is the latest version of the Cougar family of helicopters, weighing 11 tons has been deployed from ships and naval long-range missions. The Exocet missile in the air-to-surface version AM-39 has a range of 70 km. allowing a pitch beyond the air defense systems of the target vessel. Finally, the radar AN / APS-143V Eye Ocean marine radar is a high quality surveillance Telephonics developed by the company, which is in service different versions in various naval platforms.

Embraer refuses to receive the Russian Deputy Prime Minister
(defensa.com) Embraer's refusal to schedule the visit of senior Russian official to its facilities is creating unrest among the governments of Russia and Brazil. The invitation to the Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin, in the list of Russian authorities under US sanctions could compromise the Brazilian company with the US government.
Dmitry Rogozin, head of the Defense and Aerospace in Russia, arrived in Brazil in the last hours. In Brasilia, met with Vice President Michel Temer, and Defense Minister Celso Amorim. He then traveled to Sao Jose dos Campos, to meet with companies in the defense industry.
Rogozin was asked to visit Embraer, although it is not clear if he had any particular interest. Embraer, however, said he could not arrange a visit, arguing that its president had prior commitments and without proposing that Rogozin was received by another person. The refusal also annoyed the Russian government, partner of Brazil in the BRIC group. The Russian Foreign Ministry called the Brazilian ambassador in Moscow to express their dissatisfaction with the treatment of Rogozin by Embraer and ask the government to intercede for the visit.
The refusal of the Brazilian company would be related to the fact that Rogozin is listed by the Russian authorities under Western sanctions imposed after the Russian intervention in Ukraine. Sanctions reach strategic companies and the Russian authorities considered close to President Vladimir Putin. Rogozin was on the first list of sanctions, announced in March by President Barack Obama, affecting the entry into the US and freezes any assets they have in the country. The sanctions were subsequently adopted by the EU and other Western countries.
A visit to Embraer Rogozin could be frowned upon by the government of the United States, which is the largest market for Brazilian manufacturer and which have been also developed important links on defense. But Embraer is also one of those selected for the nationalization of antiaircraft systems and Igla Pantsir companies, which Russia will supply Brazil through its subsidiary Bradar, manufacturer of radar, a contract whose amount is estimated at nearly a thousand million.
The director of Odebrecht Defense and Technology, André Luiz Paraná, yes reported that the Russian delegation will visit Mectron, a member of this group, which also participate in the project antiaircraft batteries.

The Brazilian Navy confirms the ambitious plans for its submarine fleet
(defensa.com) During the opening ceremony of the main building of the shipyard for assembling complex submarines new Shipyard and Naval Base of the Brazilian Navy in Itaguai, which took place on December 12, Admiral July Soares Moura Neto, commander of the Brazilian Navy confirmed that the naval plans in Brazil are contemplating the construction of 15 conventional submarines and six nuclear propulsion.
The development program of submarines in Brazil or PROSUB is valued at 12,500 million dollars and has the French shipyard DCNS as a strategic partner, so keep the original lines in the Plan of Equipment and Organization of the Brazilian Navy (PEAMB for their Portuguese acronym) of 2009, which determined that 15 conventionally powered submarines (SSK or S-BR in denomination of the Brazilian Navy) and six nuclear (SSN or SN-BR in denomination of the Brazilian Navy) would be acquired in several sections until 2047.
The first four SSK diesel-electric propulsion, based on the design of the French Scorpène have already been ordered and are under construction, it is foreseen that the first one is finished in 2016 and can go into service two years later after Phase test. The other three will be in service in 2022. Two sections of the first submarine are already under construction and two have already been completed in France and shipped to Brazil while still missing install components in these four sections. The PEAMB contemplated that a second batch of four submarines will be commissioned in 2021, is derecognised when the first of the Tupi class submarines, allowing readily available in eight conventionally powered submarines.
Brazil will host French technical assistance to build sections not containing nuclear submarine SSN systems, having already hired the former, whose construction should begin in 2017 and end in 2023 to enter service two years later. If everything proceeds correctly with this submarine, from 2030 new units could be hired until the six planned.

No question Brazil is a serious rinsing power and the most powerful nation in Latin America
With 6 x SSN they would have a formidable SSN fleet
Not to mention a aircraft carrier too

Plus the six current Type 209 and the construction of the five French Scorpène-class submarine. That will eventually be 17 submarines.

So to get this straight:
6 209 in service.
4 Scorpene on order, 1st to be comissioned in 2018, the 4th in 2022.
When the article then speaks of the next batch, the Tupi class (?) comissioned in 2021, that means ordering that batch? So another 4 SSK towards the end of the decade?
And then the 1st SSN in service around 2025.
