Brazilian aerospace company Embraer will participate in the DSEI Japan defense exhibition in Chiba City from May 21 to 23, 2025, showcasing its KC-390 Millennium multi-role transport and tanker aircraft as a highlight of its defense and security solutions portfolio. At booth H8-480, the company will showcase the capabilities and growing popularity of this aircraft type, which is already in service with a growing number of operators worldwide.
Bosco da Costa Junior, President and CEO of Embraer Defense & Security, emphasized the company's honor to be represented at DSEI Japan and to demonstrate the capabilities and reliability of the KC-390 Millennium. He emphasized that Japan is an important market for Embraer, where the E-Jet family of commercial aircraft has steadily gained traction over the past 15 years. Performance and reliability are core characteristics of all Embraer aircraft, and the company looks forward to supporting Japan's defense and aviation needs.
The KC-390 Millennium is rapidly becoming the preferred aircraft in its class internationally, contributing to the modernization of armed forces in various countries, including Europe. The aircraft is already in service with Brazil, Portugal, and Hungary, and has been ordered by South Korea, the Netherlands, Austria, the Czech Republic, Sweden, and Slovakia. The growing number of operators, including NATO countries, promotes interoperability with key allies and provides access to a broader pool of operational knowledge and support. The KC-390 Millennium is a new-generation multi-role aircraft designed to meet the demands of the 21st century. It features higher speed, longer range, and a higher payload capacity (26 tons) compared to other medium-sized military cargo aircraft, and can operate from short, unpaved, and damaged runways.
