UAE orders 20 C-390 Millennium military transport aircraft from Brazil in Middle East first

The UAE has placed an order for 20 Embraer C-390 Millennium military transport aircraft, marking the type's first sale to a Middle Eastern operator. The deal represents a significant export success for Brazil's defense industry and Embraer's C-390 program. The aircraft will provide the UAE Air Force with a modern medium-lift airlift and air-refueling capability to replace aging C-130 variants. The order is valued in the multi-billion dollar range and includes training, logistics support, and potential in-country maintenance agreements.
