Embraer and OGMA have successfully completed the first scheduled 24-month maintenance of a C-390 Millennium aircraft operated by the Hungarian Air Force.
The work was carried out at OGMA’s facilities in Portugal, representing a key step for the program and further strengthening the C-390 Millennium support structure in Europe. This builds on Embraer’s recently signed service agreement to support the Hungarian Air Force’s C-390 Millennium fleet.
“The completion of this first C-390 Millennium maintenance at OGMA marks an important milestone for our operations,” Commander of the Hungarian Air Force, Brigadier General Tamás Bali PhD, stated.
“We are very satisfied with the overall execution and the high level of technical expertise demonstrated by the teams. The close collaboration between the Hungarian Air Force, OGMA, and Embraer ensured a smooth and well-coordinated process. We are highly satisfied with the outcome and the level of support provided throughout the activity.”
The services contract between Embraer and the Hungarian Air Force includes maintenance, logistics, and technical support, leveraging Embraer’s European service network.
Hungary, the second NATO operator of the C-390, received its full fleet of two aircraft in November 2025. They entered service in late 2024.
“This maintenance event for the Hungarian Air Force’s C-390 Millennium is a significant step in strengthening our support capabilities in Europe,” Embraer Services & Support, VP Customer Support & Aftermarket Sales, Douglas Lobo, highlighted.
“Working together with OGMA, we delivered a robust and efficient service that supports operational readiness and long-term customer satisfaction. This achievement reinforces our commitment to delivering reliable, high-performance capabilities to customers in Europe and worldwide.”
The C-390 Millennium is a next-generation multi-mission aircraft designed to operate in demanding environments. According to Embraer, it can perform a wide range of missions, including cargo and troop transport, medical evacuation, humanitarian assistance, search and rescue, precision cargo airdrops, paratrooper operations, and air-to-air refuelling.
The Hungarian aircrafts are the first equipped with a modular roll-on/roll-off Intensive Care Unit (ICU), expanding their capability for advanced medical missions.
