Embraer will make its debut at MSPO 2025, Poland’s premier defense industry exhibition, where it will highlight the KC-390 Millennium multi-mission aircraft. From September 2–5, visitors will find Embraer in Hall 1 (Booth E18), presenting the KC-390 as a tactical transport solution that combines versatility, payload, and operational reliability.
The company is actively developing a European ecosystem around the KC-390, focusing on training, maintenance, MRO, and R&D cooperation. This approach enhances the operational capabilities of European users while promoting interoperability across NATO allies.
“Poland has a distinguished aerospace heritage and plays a vital role within NATO,” said Bosco da Costa Junior, President and CEO of Embraer Defense & Security. “The KC-390 Millennium can strengthen regional capabilities and support greater integration within the Alliance.”
The KC-390 is gaining recognition as the tactical transport platform of choice among NATO countries. In addition to the Brazilian Air Force, it has already entered service with the Portuguese and Hungarian Air Forces, achieving a 93% mission capability rate and more than 99% mission completion rate. With 11 air forces selecting the aircraft to date—including eight in Europe and seven NATO members—the KC-390 underscores Embraer’s growing footprint in the transatlantic defense landscape.
Capable of carrying 26 tons of payload, operating from unpaved runways, and performing missions ranging from cargo transport to aerial refueling, the KC-390 offers allied nations a flexible and modern capability aligned with NATO requirements.
