Embraer-HAI MoU targets C-390 Millennium sustainment in Greece ahead of Greek fleet decision

Embraer and Hellenic Aerospace Industry (HAI) have signed an MoU in Athens to develop C-390 Millennium maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) capabilities, positioning local sustainment support prior to any Greek airlifter order. The wording of the announcement is being read as indicative of a likely Greek C-390 selection.

Briefing

What Hype is tracking

  • The Embraer–HAI MoU signals how a potential Greek C-390 decision could be de-risked through in-country sustainment planning, not just airframe acquisition.
  • For defense procurement watchers, the announcement language suggests the Greek Air Force may have moved toward a KC/C-390 Millennium selection—shaping follow-on contracting, training and supply-chain decisions.
  • This development adds to the broader C-390 commercial push highlighted by Embraer’s KC-390 demonstrator sales tour (see Embraer’s KC-390 demonstrator crisscrosses the globe on worldwide sales tour).
