Embraer Defense & Security supports India's long-term vision for defence modernisation, innovation and strategic alliances

- 

AS GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS EVOLVE AND DYNAMICS SHIFT, the longstanding ties between India and Brazil are strengthening – most recently through state visits and high-level dialogues and collaborations, including the recent BRICS Summit. Building on this legacy, Embraer sees opportunities to grow its commitment to India and contribute to meeting India's evolving aerospace and defence needs, with a potential to assist India's efforts towards achieving 'Atmanirbhar Bharat' (self-reliance).

Currently, there are close to 50 Embraer aircraft across 11 aircraft types operating in the country, from defence to commercial aviation and business aviation, all supported by Embraer's service & support network in the country.

Embraer's latest aircraft, the C-390 Millennium multi-mission, medium-lift, military transport aircraft has been swiftly growing its global operator base and promises to be a versatile and effective asset to India's defence needs – contributing to its modernisation goals and fulfilling operational requirements.

The C-390 Millennium flies faster (470 knots) and farther and can carry more payload (26 tonnes) compared to other medium-sized military transport aircraft.
