Published
August 04, 2026

· Colombia becomes the first Latin American nation beyond Brazil to acquire the Millennium and the 13th country worldwide to select the standard-setting aircraft
· The KC-390 has been selected as the best platform to meet the operational needs and mission requirements of the Fuerza Aeroespacial Colombiana (FAC)​

Bogotá, Colombia, August 4, 2026 – Embraer (NYSE: EMBJ/ B3: EMBJ3) announced today that the Fuerza Aeroespacial Colombiana (FAC) has signed a contract for the acquisition of two KC-390 Millennium multi-mission aircraft, marking a significant milestone in the modernization of Colombia’s airlift and aerial refueling capabilities. The contract also includes mission equipment, an integrated services and support package, and a comprehensive offset program designed to meet Colombia’s regulatory requirements.
The FAC’s KC-390 Millennium fleet will be capable of performing a wide range of missions, including humanitarian assistance, disaster relief, cargo and troop transport, airdrop operations, and air-to-air refueling. The aircraft will also feature full connectivity to operate seamlessly alongside Colombia’s recently acquired Gripen fighters, enhancing the nation’s operational readiness and interoperability.
"We are honored by the FAC’s decision to select the KC-390 Millennium. This choice reinforces a partnership that spans more than 35 years, dating back to the FAC’s acquisition of its first Embraer aircraft, an EMB-312 Tucano followed by the A-29 Super Tucano. The KC-390 will significantly expand and strengthen Colombia’s airlift and aerial refueling capabilities, setting a new standard for operational excellence," said Bosco da Costa Junior, President and CEO of Embraer Defense & Security.
The KC-390 Millennium, built and designed in the 21st century, is the most modern military transport aircraft in its class. It can carry more payload (26 tons) compared to other medium-sized military transport aircraft, flying faster (470 knots) and farther. It can perform a wide range of missions, including cargo and troop transport, equipment and personnel airdrops, medical evacuation, search and rescue (SAR), firefighting, and humanitarian missions, operating from temporary or unpaved runways. The aircraft, when configured with quick-installation air-to-air refueling equipment (AAR), can operate both as a tanker and as a receiver.
In addition to the Brazilian Air Force, this next-generation multi-mission aircraft has been selected by the air forces of Portugal, Hungary, the Republic of Korea, the Netherlands, Austria, the Czech Republic, Uzbekistan, Sweden, the United Arab Emirates, Slovakia,
and Lithuania. The KC-390 Millennium delivers unmatched capability, reliability, versatility, and performance to meet the tactical and strategic needs of air forces worldwide with seamless interoperability.
