Embraer E-Jets direct rival of Bombardier CSeries and CRJ. Passenger capacity between 75 ERJ170-100 and 120 ERJ190-200 slightly smaller than Boeing B737 or Airbus A320 but about the same capacity as Bombardier CRJ. Embraer has been sharing the regional jet market with Bombardier. Bombardier CSeries offer bigger passenger capacity model, but Embraer E-Jets have been sold worldwide (very important aspect for aviation makers).
Mitsubishi Regional Jet and Sukhoi Superjet seem like those newer planes made to compete with Embraer E-Jets. MRJ is more for fuel efficiency, Sukhoi Superjet is more for the price. Embraer E-Jets offer somewhere between targeted by new comers.
In any case, Embraer E-Jets are well sold, very popular commercial airplanes today. How Bombardier's CSeries will manage which is very interesting.

Sukhoi willing to make contract with western airlines? I never thought such a day would come. I was a great fan of Russian military aircrafts when I was a child. Keep up the good work Takasito:)
Yeah, Sukhoi is in contact with Lufthansa. Yes, the world politics have changed a lot!!
We will see more airplanes not made by Boeing nor Airbus near the future (in fact, Embraer and Bombardier have been selling many airplanes in recent years.
