The Italian air force is expected to later this year complete flight trials of an Alenia Aeronautica C-27J tactical transport modified to counter the threat posed by improvised explosive devices.
Required to counter the asymmetric threats found in demanding operational environments such as Afghanistan, the air force launched a programme to equip the C-27J with a counter-IED (CIED) payload. This has been developed by the service's own electronic warfare operational support unit, the ReSTOGE, which is headquartered at Pratica di Mare air base near Rome.
