Brazil buys C-1A Traders for COD

Brazil has decided to bring eight Grumman C-1A Traders back to life for carrier on-board delivery and air refueling duties.

Embraer will upgrade the engines with Honeywell TP331-14GR turboprops and Hartzell five-bladed propellers.

Two will be converted into refueling tankers for the Navy’s A-4 Skyhawks.
