Sweden Selects the Embraer C-390 Millennium

Issue: 10-2024

The Swedish Ministry of Defense announced the selection of the Embraer C-390 Millennium as Sweden’s new tactical transport aircraft. This strategic decision from another North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) member country marks the first acquisition of the C-390 in Northern Europe, underscoring Sweden’s commitment to enhancing its defence capabilities with state-of-the-art aircraft. Embraer already has a long-term partnership with Sweden, which will be further deepened with the C-390 selection.

The C-390’s selection aligns with a growing trend among European NATO member countries recognising the aircraft’s effectiveness in addressing both current and future defence needs. Sweden is the sixth European nation to select the aircraft, along with Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Netherlands and Portugal. Sweden’s acquisition of the C-390 will not only bolster national defence, but also enhance interoperability with allied forces while benefiting from the synergies present in Europe in terms of training facilities, support and logistics.
