Painting work on the livery of an HH212 of the Italian Air Force has been completed at the 15th CERIMANT of the Italian Army. The activity was made possible thanks to the support provided by the 15th CERIMANT, which made available the painting booth suitable for housing a complete helicopter for the specific work. To mark the event, a modest ceremony was organised, attended by the Commander of the Transport and Materials Command of the Northern Logistic Command of the Italian Army, General Ludovico Avitabile. To symbolise the start of cooperation between the two Armed Forces Departments, the crests were exchanged between the Director of the 2nd R.M.M., Colonel Claudio Barbieri and the Director of the 15th CERIMANT, Col. Michele Cariglia. The 2nd Missile Maintenance Department, subordinate to the 2nd Division of the Air Force Logistic Command, ensures the technical-logistical and maintenance management of the HH-212 helicopter, of the Surface-to-Air Air Defence missile systems, and of the onboard and ground armament supplied to the Armed Force. Furthermore, it performs the functions of Air Force Garrison Command, guaranteeing logistical and administrative support to all Air Force Entities in the Padua area.
