      It's a corps with long history, especially related to many episodes during WW1, against the Austrian empire and german units commaned by a very young Rommel (the White War, the battle of Isonzo, Vittorio Veneto and the famigerate disaster of Caporetto).
      Fair in numbers, the Alpini are not a specialized elite regiment like the naval incursors "Col Moschin" (sort of navy seals) or the more known "Folgore" (the paratroopers of the famous last stand in El Alamein).
      As long as there was a draft, you could just be drafted into the Alpini.
      But they drafted almost only locals, or people expressely demanding to enter.
      Mostly, people born in these harsh mountains, expert of unforgiving environment, extreme weather and hight, that love and respect these mountains.
      US commands were actually surprised when Alpini groups sent to Afghanistan as support, had no problems and often volunteered in going in night patrols in really impervious, harsh mountain terrain.
      It's just what we do, they said. Extremely well trained and well equipped, the Alpini have a strong bond.
      When an Alpino leaves active service, he keeps the characteristic green cap with the black feather, and once par year they organize oceanic meetings, where they march in the thousands, young and old, singing their mountain songs.
      It's a very italian thing, especially in the north, basically untouched by politics. Together with the running band of the Bersaglieri, Alpini is something that everyone in Italy likes, except maybe few sociopaths with Stalin tattoos on their asses.
      There is plenty of material on the internet about the Alpini corps, many episodes worth knowing if you are interested in military history.

      Hi Don, yes, your intuition is working well, currently the Italian army is slowly replacing the AB-205 Huey with the NHIndustries NH90 medium-sized, twin-engine, multi-role military helicopter - The Tactical Transport Helicopter (TTH) variant. Similiar ish to to the S-92

      Italian Army also ordered AW169 MA ((Multiruolo Avanzato)), that are specific versions of Leonardo AW169M LUH.
      Two helicopters for basic pilots training are already in service AW169B, designated as HU-169B by italian army.
      Very likely the AW-169 MA will have a skid landing gear.
      AW169 MA was also ordered by austrian army.

      Raven feather (black) for Soldiers and Corporals. Eagle Feather (Brown) Second Lieutenant to Captain. Above the grade of major goose down (white). The feather is the symbol that those soldiers who are specialized in operating in the mountains are called Alpini.

      ​@@OFFTRACKPLACES You're confusing yourself with the Bersaglieri. Alpini have only one flight feather (not a normal feather) on their hat and it is only a symbol. On the helmet they have a smaller to avoid interfering with goggles and comms. The Bersaglieri have many feathers on their hats (traditionally 100) and they too have a smaller version for their combat helmet. There are various stories about the origin of Bersaglieri's feathers: camouflage, protection from the sun when aiming the rifle or even to give a greater sense of dynamism while running (the Bersaglieri are famous for running a lot).

      L'esercito italiano è tutt'altro che debole. Il sito global firepower pubblica annualmente la classifica degli eserciti più potenti al mondo. Nell'anno corrente l'esercito italiano è stato collocato al decimo posto. Dei paesi appartenenti all'unione europea solo la Francia ha un posizionamento più elevato(nona posizione). Il vantaggio dei francesi rispetto all'Italia è quello di poter possedere le testate nucleari.

    Queste esercitazioni sono belle da vedere, sicuramente servono a provare le varie tecniche, il coordinamento ecc pero' temo che siano un vecchio modo di fare guerra.... Oggi lo vediamo in Ucraina ed in altri scenari che la guerra e' fatta di missili, droni, aerei che bombardano. L'utilizzo del soldato "umano" e' limitata al minimo, in modo da limitare le perdite e le truppe quando si spostano lo fanno per presidiare una zona che e' gia' stata "ripulita" da ogni minaccia con droni, missili e bombardamenti. Trasportare un pezzo d'artiglieria mi sembra abbastanza anacronistico.... se si dovesse colpire qualcosa si userebbe un missile teleguidato, molto piu' preciso, veloce, pratico. Speriamo sempre che non ci sia bisogno di nessuna guerra.

      Giusta osservazione ma devi considerare anche il teatro di guerra, il tuo ragionamento funziona in contesti come appunto l'Ucraina o come è stata la guerra nel Golfo ma non ad esempio in Afghanistan dove era imprescindibile la presenza di truppe sul territorio. Se poi guardiamo quello che sta facendo Israele con la scusa di combattere Hamas... fanno finta di non saperlo ma il terrorismo non si combatte con droni e carri armati.
