According to Embraer, this maintenance marks a significant step in the ongoing support of the C-390 Millennium programme in Europe.
It follows a recently finalised service agreement between Embraer and the Hungarian Air Force to provide continued fleet support.
The contract covers maintenance, logistics, and technical support services for Hungary’s C-390 Millennium fleet, utilising Embraer’s European service infrastructure.
Hungary is the second North Atlantic Treaty Organization (Nato) member after Portugal to operate the C-390 Millennium aircraft.
The Hungarian Air Force took delivery of its first C-390 Millennium in September 2024 and the second in November 2025.
Hungarian Air Force commander Brigadier General Tamás Bali said: “The completion of this first C-390 Millennium maintenance at OGMA marks an important milestone for our operations.
“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 C-390 Millennium is designed to perform multiple roles, such as cargo and troop transport, medical evacuation, humanitarian missions, search and rescue, precision airdrop operations, paratrooper deployment, and air-to-air refuelling.
It offers a payload capacity of 26 tonnes, with a speed of 470 knots, and is configured to meet Nato standards in both hardware and avionics, including its communications suite.
The Hungarian C-390 Millennium aircraft are the first of the type equipped with a modular roll-on/roll-off Intensive Care Unit (ICU), enabling advanced medical mission capabilities.
