The aircraft is "well suited" to fulfill the requirements of the SANDF and other government bodies, according to Embraer Defense & Security Chief Executive Bosco da Costa Junior.

SANDF said it had the "opportunity" to evaluate the C-390 Millennium and it has "shown interest" in the aircraft as it advances the required steps to select it.

Embraer did not disclose the number of aircraft it would sell or provide details on the current status of the potential deal.

Shares of the company were up 1% in recent Wednesday premarket activity.
