Encyclopedia : A : AE : AER : Aeronautica Militare
The Aeronautica Militare Italiana is the Italian air force. It was founded as an independent service arm on the March 28, 1923, by King Vittorio Emanuele III as the Regia Aeronautica (which equates to "Royal Air Force"). After World War II, when Italy was made a republic by referendum, the Regia Aeronautica was given its current name. Its Aerobatic precision team is the Frecce Tricolori.
