EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Piaggio P-180E Avanti MM62167 (msn 1026) of the Italian Army's 28th Group, circa 2010. The Avanti, a versatile and advanced turboprop aircraft manufactured by Piaggio Aero Industries, is depicted here in its military configuration. The Italian Army, known as the Esercito Italiano, utilized this particular Avanti for various missions and tasks. The Piaggio P-180E Avanti is a marvel of modern aeronautical engineering. Its sleek design, with a fuselage made primarily of composite materials, reduces drag and increases efficiency. The Avanti's unique wing design, known as the "canard-delta" configuration, provides excellent lift and stability. Powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-66D engines, the Avanti can reach impressive cruising speeds of up to 375 mph (603 km/h). In military service, the Avanti was used for a variety of roles, including reconnaissance, liaison, and light transport missions. The Italian Army's 28th Group, which operated this specific Avanti, likely utilized it for transporting troops, supplies, and equipment to remote locations. The aircraft's ability to take off and land on short runways made it an ideal choice for military operations in challenging environments. This photograph, part of The Tony Lovelock Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique glimpse into the Italian Army's use of the Piaggio P-180E Avanti MM62167 during the early 21st century. It is a testament to the versatility and capabilities of this remarkable aircraft in military service.
