Embraer and Mahindra C-390 assembly proposal in India

Overview

Embraer and the Mahindra Group are proposing Nagpur, Maharashtra, as the site for a final assembly line for the C-390 Millennium military transport aircraft. This proposal is tied to the potential selection of the aircraft for the Indian Air Force’s Medium Transport Aircraft (MTA) programme, which may involve an order of 60 to 80 aircraft.

The proposed industrial ecosystem aims to include system integration, manufacturing engineering, and the development of a local supply chain.
