This maintenance is part of a service contract signed between Embraer and the Hungarian Air Force, covering logistics support, scheduled maintenance, and technical assistance for the Hungarian C-390 Millennium fleet. Brigadier General Tamás Bali, Commander of the Hungarian Air Force, stated that the successful completion of this inspection demonstrates the efficient cooperation of the participating teams. He noted that the close collaboration between the Hungarian Air Force, OGMA, and Embraer ensured agility and coordination in the process.

Douglas Lobo, Vice President of Customer Support and Aftermarket for Embraer Services & Support, pointed out that the maintenance of the Hungarian Air Force's C-390 Millennium is an important step in strengthening its support capabilities in Europe. Through the partnership with OGMA, Embraer has provided efficient services that help enhance the aircraft's operational readiness and customer satisfaction.

Hungary is the second NATO country to operate the C-390 Millennium and received both of its aircraft in November 2025. Since entering service in late 2024, these aircraft have maintained high availability and performance. Designed for military and humanitarian missions, the C-390 Millennium can perform cargo and troop transport, aeromedical evacuation, search and rescue, airdrop resupply, paratrooper operations, and aerial refueling. Hungary's aircraft are also notable for being the first C-390 versions equipped with a modular roll-on/roll-off intensive care unit (ICU), significantly expanding the platform's capability for advanced medical missions.

With the completion of the first major scheduled maintenance, Embraer and OGMA have consolidated the maturity of the C-390 Millennium program and enhanced support capabilities for European operators of this aircraft model amid the expanding fleet in Europe.
