Embraer has signed a new long-term agreement with the Brazilian Air Force (FAB) to provide support solutions for its KC-390 Millennium fleet.
Signed in São José dos Campos, Brazil, on June 18, 2026, the agreement deepens the partnership between Embraer and the FAB, with a focus on maximising the operational availability of the multimission aircraft. It covers full lifecycle support for the KC-390 fleet, including aircraft already in service and those still to be delivered.
“The signing of this logistics support agreement reinforces the Brazilian Air Force’s commitment to operational readiness and fleet availability,” said Lieutenant-Brigadier Valter Malta, Brazilian Air Force General Support Commander. “Through this contract, we will provide the maintenance and logistical sustainment required to support the KC-390 Millennium, a strategic asset for the country’s mobility, defence and rapid response capabilities.
“In addition, the agreement contributes to improving operational efficiency across the Brazilian Air Force, while strengthening reliability and ensuring continuity for a programme that has become a global benchmark in military aviation.”
The agreement includes component repair and overhaul, spare parts supply, engineering services, technical publications and additional contingency support. Its scope is designed to improve logistics performance, increase operational predictability and allow a faster response to FAB requirements.
