On 14 June 2021, the next three EMBRAER A-29B Super Tucano light attack aircraft for the Turkmenistan Air Force were noted at São José dos Campos (Brazil).

The aircraft have their roundels and serials taped over, but are registered PT-ZHN (c/n 314000272), PT-ZHK (c/n 314000273) and PT-ZHO (314000274). Their future serials most probably will be 03 Blue, 04 Blue respectively 05 Blue.

On 14 June 2021, the trio started their delivery flight. According to the information they will fly the following route:

São José dos Campos, SP, Brazil (SJK) - Recife/Guararapes-Gilberto Freyre, PE, Brazil (REC) - Carlos Wilson Airport, Brazil (FEN) - Amilcar Cabral, Sal Island, Cape Verde (SID) - Gran Canaria, Canary Islands, Spain (LPA) - Alverca, Portugal (AVR) - Luqa, Malta (MLA) - Samsun/Carsamba, Turkey (SZF).

On 6 June 2021, Scramble Magazine reported on the delivery flight of the first two Super Tucanos for Turkmenistan. The number of aircraft ordered is still not confirmed, but most probably will be five.
