Resumen
PEREIRA, Flávio Diniz y DE OLIVEIRA MATOS, Patrícia. Regional Military Cooperation: Brazilian Air Force, Colombian Air Force and Capacity Sharing for the Amazon Protection. rev.relac.int.estrateg.segur. [online]. 2020, vol.15, n.2, pp.27-42. Epub 25-Sep-2020. ISSN 1909-3063. https://doi.org/10.18359/ries.4300.
The geographical location of Brazil and Colombia, their shared border issues and their operational similarity may represent a chance for regional military cooperation, since they have common interests such as protecting the Amazon. Moreover, both countries need multi-motor vectors in their air forces that can be supplemented by international agreements. This work analyzes the feasibility of cooperation through literature review, documentary research and technical-operational analysis. It is also intended to review the possibility and format of bilateral military cooperation between the Colombian Air Force (Fuerza Armada Colombiana, FAC) and the Brazilian Air Force(Forças Armadas do Brasil) to protect the Amazon by using the kc-390 aircraft. The findings from documentary research and literature review point to the feasibility of bilateral cooperation under the European Air Transport & Air-to-Air Refueling (ATAR) model. The Brazilian kc-390 aircraft complements THE FAC, and THE COLOMBIAN KC-767 aircrafts increase the training of Brazilian FAB pilots.
