First Visit Brazilian Embraer KC-390 - Replacement of the C-130 Hercules at Eindhoven

On Saturday September 10th 2022, an Embraer KC-390 landed at Eindhoven AB (ICAO EHEH) in the Netherlands. This Embraer KC-390 company demonstrator is traveling in Europe and this time it is staying a few days in the Netherlands. The Royal Dutch Air Force (“Koninklijke Luchtmacht”) is currently flying 4 Lockheed C-130 Hercules aircraft and the Embraer C-390M is the anticipated replacement of the Hercules, with 5 aircraft.

On Monday September 12th, a test flight was performed overhead the Netherlands with the commander of the Dutch Air Force, Lt-gen Dennis Luyt onboard. The Netherlands is the 3rd European country to select the Embraer C-390, following Portugal and Hungary. For the Netherlands, the C-390 ‘Millennium’ will not be the KC-390 for air-air-refueling, as there is a large Airbus A330-MRTT fleet based at Eindhoven AB. The C-390 will be used solely as transport aircraft.
