Briefing

What Hype is tracking

  • The first ROKAF C-390 has entered final assembly at the Singapore Airshow, a discrete production milestone that advances the airframe toward flight testing and delivery.

  • The announcement reinforces Embraer’s C-390 campaign in Asia and highlights ongoing efforts to secure local production, MRO and technology partnerships (localisation and MoUs).

  • Progress on the ROKAF airframe increases near-term sustainment and industrial requirements across the region, echoing Embraer’s push to build regional MRO ties (regional MRO ties) and sitting alongside South Korea’s broader defence industrialisation activity (ministerial defence council).
