Delivery of the first JSF assembled in Italy
At Cameri Air Force base recently, the delivery of the first Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) entirely assembled in Italy took place. The delivery ceremony was attended by military and industry representatives from different countries such as the US, UK, Netherlands, Canada, Turkey, Australia, Germany and Norway.
The ceremony confirmed the importance of the Cameri plant – officially known as the Final Assembly and Check Out (FACO) facility – as a major industrial centre of high-tech manufacturing.
The Cameri plant was designed from the outset to accommodate both production activities as well as those regarding maintenance, repair, overhaul and upgrade of the JSF aircraft.
In December 2014, Italy was selected to be the maintenance pole for aircraft deployed in Europe, both those purchased by European countries and those operated in Europe by US forces.
The technologically advanced, fifth-generation aircraft will reduce the number of different airplanes currently in service and, thanks to its features and systems, will multiply national intelligence capabilities.
The event delivery was attended by Chief of Staff of the Air Force, General Pasquale Preziosa.
