On March 28th 1923, the Italian Air Force was founded as a separate unit called Regia Aeronautica. After World War II and the abolition of the monarchy, it was renamed Aeronautica Militare. When the Italian Air Force decided to modernize in the late 20th century, it purchased the Eurofighter Typhoon — these aircraft now make up a significant part of the Aeronautica Militare’s fleet.

About this helicopter
The A-129 International (p) is an early export variant of the A129 Mangusta attack helicopter that differs from the original, in that it has more powerful engines and a 12.7 mm machine gun.

The Frecce Tricolori’s emblem is tasty but does that mean you guys are working on the MB339 (the A version is used by the Frecce Tricolori with the name MB339PAN), or is it just me dreaming too much.
Why dont the devs just give console players opportunities to have equal sales as PC players do. If they’re not going to give the 50% bundle offer to consoles then at least make the tech tree sale 50% instead of 30% to equal out.
Gaijin can do stuff like that to give players equal opportunities but they don’t. Its insanely irritating to see this happen.
How the hell we still don’t have a single Aermacchi plane in the game?
I would love to use that emblem on MB-339A…
Devs should really pay more attention to Italian props and subsonic jets, there are so many potential additions (most of which have suggestions on the forum), but we rarely see any new Italian planes, at best only some joint ventures, which already come to other TT (like Tornado and Typhoon) or copypaste. Honestly with the amount of Italian interwar/WW2 planes existed irl, we should receive at least one prop each update just like USA gets top tier jets.
Nice to see it returned, but I still don’t understand why it has 11.0 br in RB.
It doesn’t get AAMs to protect itself, nor flares/chaffs, similar or I would say better helicopters are placed at 10.7, for example T-129 and G-Lynx.
Sad for the “lack” of Italian aircrafts on sale,but at the same time it’s Italian Air Force day,and the A-1A and the F-104S TAF are Brazilian and Turkish, respectively.
Buuut i’m extremely happy for the decal so thanks Gaijin!
As I live not far from Ramstein/germany the name of “frecce tricolori” is in my memory for ever related to the fatal disaster during the airshow in 1988
