Embraer C-390: The Game Changer

In this video we will meet the C-390 – the newest military transport aircraft created by the Brazilian Embraer in the 2010s. The feature of this project is that, being a mid-size military transport, it has the most advanced technical equipment in its class, as well as a jet power plant, which distinguishes it from most of its analogs – turboprops. In this niche, the Embraer C-390 is a direct competitor to the C-130 Hercules from Lockheed Martin – a veteran and the current absolute leader.

Welcome aboard!

I worked at an airport and the "E-Jets" are very well respected. Congrats to our Brazilian friends.

"Decides to enter the military market" - Embraer has been in the military market since it was established in 1969.

The first hungarian C-390 just arrived in Europe to enter service in their air force.

Thats the brazilian way to aviation: Cheap, durable, modern and absolutely beautiful.

[jamysalmeida]

The fire fighting isn’t test anymore, it’s already in use this moment in Brazil.

As a former C-130 Crewchief this plane looks awesome.

The interesting thing is Embraer is tiny compared to Airbus and Boeing, but all their products are excellent. They have 5 different business jets which are all very competitive in that market.

[miamijules]

Well damn Brazil…. there you go…. that’s a badass cargo jet you’ve got yourselves there. I like it!

[emanuel]

I am honestly really proud of our Embraer 😊

[joshuacherian]

It's a beautiful and modern transport aircraft... Hats off to Enbraer & Brazil

[MrAndreisousa]

As a Brazilian, I'm so proud of this company

[abelardochavez]

Mexicana de Aviacion just ordered 20 airplanes from EMBRAER. Fortunately, the Brasileños takes care of that company. Buen trabajo Brasileños

Embraer has been in the military market for decades!

I`m very happy that my government (Austria) decided to purchase 4 these planes. They will serve as an urgent replacement for our aging fleet of 4 C-130K (only 3 are operational) which were bought as already "used" stuff from the UK. In 2015 the 4th plane was bought to serve as a donor for spare parts ^^ - while the other 3 have been in service for 57 years (36 years RAF, 21 years Austrian Air Force)

All this time I was thinking the C-390 was a bit smaller than a C-130. Thanks for the info!

[jokerace]

It's the best looking cargo transport, imo.

[taiyoki_futatsu]

We really need a new competitor to the duopoly!! Go embraer go!

[Leftdead-]

The large front windows make the plane appear smaller than the c130 when in fact it is larger. Interesting optical illusion.

[GarfieldRex]

I wish my government (Colombia) purchased a lot of these, this is just perfect for the Armed Forces, tons of operations and places in the jungle without paved ways, the engine is super common here, Brazil is near for service, the public airline and thr VIP transport jets already are E jets, and the Air Force already has counterinsurgency planes as Super Tucano. There are a lot of armored infantry vehicles and equipment that could be moved to red zones asap with this. Fingers crossed for one day we have at least 4 of them, as we already have a lot of old American transport planes to be phased out.

Embraer's design and engineering team is top notch, every aircraft they make look so sleek!
