Czech Republic Orders Two Embraer C-390
Millennium Multi-Mission Aircraft
- The Czech Republic becomes the fourth
NATO member to acquire the C-390 Millennium.
- This acquisition will benefit both the
Czech Air Force and the local aerospace industry.
Prague, Czech Republic, October 25, 2024
– Today, the Czech Ministry of Defense (MoD) signed a contract for the acquisition of two Embraer C-390 Millennium multi-mission
transport aircraft.
These two NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization)
standard aircraft will modernize and enhance the operational capabilities of the Czech Air Force. They will be able to perform a wide
range of missions, such as tactical transport of troops, vehicles, and equipment, medical evacuation, firefighting, disaster management,
humanitarian support, and air-to-air refueling.
This contract not only strengthens the Czech
Air Force but also positively impacts the local aerospace industry, which will see a significant increase in its share of production for
the program.
"Past and present history clearly shows
us that the military needs to be able to transport people and heavier cargo over longer distances. Evacuations from Afghanistan and Sudan
are clear evidence of this. I am therefore very pleased that we have managed to acquire aircraft for our Air Force that are capable of
performing these tasks," said Defence Minister Jana Černochová.
“This order from the Czech Republic, a
NATO member, is an invaluable mark of confidence for Embraer. It encourages us to implement the best technology to provide our customers
with the operational capabilities needed to accomplish the most demanding missions. With this order, Embraer will reinforce its ties with
the local Czech aerospace industry, recognized for its expertise and product quality for decades,” said Bosco Da Costa Junior, President
& CEO of Embraer Defense & Security.
In addition to the aircraft, Embraer will
provide a comprehensive training and support package for the Czech Air Force to ensure the smooth integration of the aircraft into their
fleet.
With a maximum payload of 26 tons, a top speed
of 470 knots, and state-of-the-art technology, the C-390 is the leading aircraft in its class. Its powerful engines, large cargo hold
with a rear ramp, and robust landing gear allow it to handle the most demanding missions, including operations from unpaved runways.
The current fleet of C-390 aircraft in service
around the world has accumulated more than 15,000 flight hours, with a mission capability rate of 93% and mission completion rates exceeding
99%, demonstrating exceptional reliability in its category. Along with Czech Republic, the C-390 has been selected by
the Netherlands, Hungary and Portugal, three NATO members, as well as Austria, Brazil, and South Korea.
