final determination is attached. Any
party-at-interest, as defined in 19 CFR
177.22(d), may seek judicial review of

pursuant to subpart B of Part 177,
Customs and Border Protection (CBP)
Regulations (19 CFR part 177, subpart
B), CBP issued a final determination
concerning the country of origin of a
converted military cargo airplane which
may be offered to the United States
Government under an undesignated
government procurement contract. This
final determination, HQ H280872, was
issued at the request of Embraer Aircraft
Holding, Inc. under procedures set forth
at 19 CFR part 177, subpart B, which
implements Title III of the Trade

determined for purposes of United
States Government procurement that the
country of origin of the KC–390 aircraft
converted from a military cargo aircraft
to a fire suppression aircraft in the
United States will be Brazil, the country

RE: U.S. Government Procurement; Title III,
Trade Agreements Act of 1979 (19 U.S.C.
2511); subpart B Part 177 CBP
Regulations; Converting a Military Cargo
Airplane to a Fire Fighting Aircraft
Dear Mr. Bunin:
This is in response to your letter dated
October 24, 2016, requesting a final
determination on behalf of Embraer Aircraft
Holding, Inc., (Embraer) pursuant to subpart
B of Part 177, Customs and Border Protection
(‘‘CBP’’) Regulations (19 CFR 177.21 et. seq.).
Under the pertinent regulations, which
implement Title III of the Trade Agreements
Act of 1979 as amended (19 U.S.C. 2511 et
seq.), CBP issues country of origin advisory
rulings and final determinations as to
whether an article is or would be a product
of a designated country or instrumentality for
purposes of granting waivers of certain ‘‘Buy
American’’ restrictions in the U.S. law or
practice for products offered for sale to the
U.S. Government.
This final determination concerns the
country of origin of the Embraer KC–390
aircraft, which will be converted from a
military cargo aircraft to an aircraft used for
fire suppression. We note that Embraer is a
party-at-interest within the meaning of 19
CFR 177.22(d) and is entitled to request this
final determination.

FACTS:
Embraer is large Brazilian aerospace
company that manufactures aircrafts. The
merchandise at issue is an aircraft known as
the Embraer KC–390. It is a medium-sized,
twin-engine jet powered military transport
aircraft developed by Embraer for the
Brazilian Air Force that is able to perform
aerial refueling and for transporting cargo
and troops. It is the heaviest aircraft that
Embraer had made to date. The aircraft was
designed for a variety of military mobility
missions, including heavy and outsized cargo
transport and air drop, troop transport and
parachute drop, air-to-air refueling, search
and rescue, and medical evacuation. It has a
modern cockpit and an advance cargo
handling system designed to enable fast and
efficient military operations in normal or
austere environments.
Embraer intends to offer the KC–390
aircraft in response to a United States Forest
Service (USFS) solicitation for air tankers
that can be used in civil fire-fighting
operations. Presently, the KC–390 is
produced in Brazil. Embraer plans to modify
the KC–390 from a medium military cargo
aircraft to a fire suppression aircraft to meet
the requirements of the USFS solicitation.
The work on the aircraft will occur in the
United States at a Boeing facility in San
Antonio, Texas. You state that the conversion
of the KC–390 from a military transport
aircraft to a civil fire-fighting aircraft will
require modification of multiple systems and
structures in order to meet the USFS
requirements for aerial fire-fighting.
The following systems in the aircraft need
to be removed: the refueling systems, selfprotection system, military mission
equipment, antennas and systems, cargo
handling systems (CHS), electronic controls,
and the ballistic protection. In addition, the
central panel assemblies of the Container
Delivery System (CDS) rails and inboard
panels will be removed in order to install a
lower component retardant delivery system
(RDS) under the cargo compartment floor.
This change will also mandate a redesign,
manufacture, and integration of a new roller
solution on the mid-board floor beams. The
aircraft structures, cargo compartment floor,
avionics systems, and electrical systems need
to be modified. A series of other engineering
activities associated with the removal of the
cargo handling system and the installation of
the fire-fighting systems will be completed as
well. Because the USFS does not require an
electronically controlled locking system, that
system will also be removed.
Because the KC–390 military
communications and navigation systems and
sensors are not required for the USFS flight
operations, they also will be removed.
Removing those components includes the
partial redesign and manufacture of the
control and power harnesses, removal of Line
Replaceable Units (LRUs), removal of
structural supports for some of the LRUs and
the removal of external fuselage surface
fairings. KC–390 armor panels will also be
removed from the flight deck and loadmaster
station and from actuator bays.
Several systems will be installed on the
aircraft, such as: a new hydraulic actuator
and fluid line, new bell doors, a new harness
