The air-to-air-refuelling version of the C-390, the KC-390, can both give and receive fuel in mid-air, assuming a second KC-390 is availableto feed it fuel from pods installed under its wings.
The current fleet of C-390 aircraft operating in the world, including those within the Brazilian Air Force and the Portuguese Air Force, has accumulated more than 14,000 flight hours, with a mission capable rate of 93% and mission completion rates above 99%.
Hungary's minister of defence Kristóf Szalay-Bobrovniczky said the C-390 would give the Hungarian Air Force unprecedented capabilities in military air transport.
“It is in Hungary's security interest to have strong, well-equipped, modern defence forces, and we are working on that,” he remarked.
