C-390: CRAFTING A SMOOTH MULTI-MISSION AIRLIFT

BRAZILIAN MANUFACTURER EMBRAER HAS ALSO BEEN a leading player especially in the Latin American defence industry with its Defense & Security portfolio through its A-29 Super Tucano light attack and advanced trainer as well as the multi-mission C-390 Millennium military airlift. Apart from these, it provides a full line of integrated solutions and applications such as Command and Control Center (C4I), radars, ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance & Reconnaissance) and Space.

This also includes integrated systems for information, communications, border monitoring and surveillance as well as aircraft for VIP transportation and special missions. With a growing presence on the global market, Embraer Defense & Security products and solutions are present in more than 60 countries.

Embraer's C-390 Millennium is a tactical transport jet aircraft designed to set new standards in its category. A joint project between FAB (Brazilian Air Force) and Embraer, the multimission jet aircraft features a rugged design that withstands operations from semi-prepared and damaged runways, as well as harsh environments. Mobility, robust design, greater flexibility, proven state-of-the-art technology, and easier maintenance are some of the strengths of this aircraft.
