The third KC-390 is part of an agreement between Embraer and the Portuguese government that will ultimately result in six aircraft in operation, with an additional ten purchase options available for allied and NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) nations. The first A-29N is part of a 2024 order for 12 aircraft, making Portugal the launch customer for the Super Tucano variant designed to meet NATO requirements.
