CDB Aviation has delivered an Embraer E-190 aircraft to Mongolia’s Hunnu Air to support the carrier’s domestic and regional operations. It is part of a fleet of four leased E-190s from CDB based on an agreement first announced in February 2019.

Hunnu Air is a privately-owned Mongolian airline that performs more than 70% of overall domestic scheduled services from its Ulaanbaatar hub, as well as supplying charter flights to Mongolian mining sites, including Oyu Tolgoi. The company also conducts international scheduled and charter services to neighboring countries, such as Russia and China.

CDB Aviation is a wholly owned Irish subsidiary of China Development Bank Financial Leasing, a 35-year-old Chinese leasing company that is backed mainly by the China Development Bank.
