Embraer has recently received the provisional type certificate for the KC-390 basic vehicle, issued by the Instituto de Fomento e Coordenação Industrial – IFI (Industrial Fostering and Coordination Institute), the Brazilian Air Force organisation responsible for military certification, attesting that the KC-390 in this basic configuration complies with the certification basis requirements.
“Achieving this milestone demonstrates the design maturity that is allowing the tests campaign to progress as planned and with high efficiency”, said Jackson Schneider, President and CEO Embraer Defense & Security.
The joint work of the Embraer and IFI teams has proven useful in bringing better integration, as well as improving and validating programme processes and procedures aiming at the initial operational capability declaration (IOC), in the second half of 2017, and the certification of the final operational capability (FOC), in the second half of 2018.
