Embraer C-390 / KC-390 Millennium Family
The Embraer C-390 Millennium is a twin-engine jet transport family designed in Brazil for medium tactical airlift and rapid mission reconfiguration. Its rear cargo ramp, fly-by-wire controls, and rugged-field capability support cargo and troop transport, aerial delivery, medical evacuation, search and rescue, humanitarian response, and firefighting. The KC-390 configuration adds air-to-air refueling as both tanker and receiver, while a growing international fleet uses the same core airframe.
