Seen here departing Andravida AB is one of some 20 Avantis used by the four branches of the Italian Armed forces since 1994. This particular airframe was manufactured in 2008 and was first operated by the Department of Civil Protection ("Dipartimento Protezione Civile") as I-DPCL, before being intergrated into the Italian AF fleet in June 2011. It is based at Practica di Mare. In early 2020, the Italian MoD announced an order for additional nine new Avantis in the version Evo+, plus the upgrade of eleven existing airframes to Evo+ configuration.
