Sweden to Acquire Four Embraer C-390 Cargo Planes

COPENHAGEN (Reuters) - Sweden's government said on Tuesday it plans to buy four C-390 transport planes from Embraer for its military, via an agreement with the Netherlands and Austria.

Sweden said last year it had selected Embraer's C-390 Millennium as its next military cargo aircraft, but did not say at the time how many it would order. Brazil at the same time said it intended to buy more Gripen fighter jets from Swedish defence company Saab.
